Musk should be guillotined, but the US Constitution defines treason very spefically for a good reason. And this isn't that.

    It's giving aid and comfort to our enemy, textbook treason

    Did the US declare war on Russia this week? I didn't hear about that.

    I mean.... Are you "at war" with every enemy all the time or can one have an enemy and not technically be in a state of war?

    Well, the US is almost constantly at war. I didn't realize you guys also included everyone you're not currently bombing as enemies as well.

    Though I guess the US use of Ukraine as a proxy is close enough . . .

    Maybe this isn’t but that doesn’t mean Musk hasn’t committed, and shouldn’t be tried for, treason.

    The point is, why is Russia supposedly the enemy of the US again?

    Seems the US has lots of enemies, and the liberals and conservatives just disagree on who they should be at constant war with, not if they should be at war.

    Really? I thought the point was “Musk must be charged for treason.”

    Didn’t realize you conflated a whole different argument into that one sentence.

    Maybe take your strawman into the fields with the rest of the scarecrows.
