"This is not treason" is a false statement. The true statement is: "This is not considered treason in the current legal framework of the US". Which is exactly the point the OP is making: it is not normal. What Russia is…
Sure, letter of the law vs. spirit of the law. That's just what he's brazen enough to do in public. I'm convinced that if Elon were actually investigated, we'd see enough for him to hang, side by side with the rest of…
