RussianDisinformation Posted January 25, 2018 Share Posted January 25, 2018 Threat of Treason Charges Already Looming Over Trump ... Misprision of treason - Wikipedia In the United States, misprision of treason is a federal offense, committed where someone who has knowledge of the commission of any treason against the United States, conceals such knowledge and does not inform the President, a federal judge, a State Governor, or a State judge (18 U.S.C. § 2382). It is punishable by a fine and up to seven years in federal prison. It is also a crime punishable under the criminal laws of many states. This means that many people in Trumpco were in effect accomplices to and participants in treason against the United States. Normally I am against the death penalty because too many innocent people are put to death and it doesn't work as a deterrent to homicides because some people don't have much to lose. Traitors are a different lot and executing them sends a message to anyone who is thinking of betraying the United States of America. Trump and his accomplices should be executed for their treason. Under common law the penalty can be hanging or beheading. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
