Are Trump and his Congressional Sycophants Traitors?

OK, so you're sticking with your original premise that Strassel's views are fully representative of the all thought and potential commentary at the Wall Street Journal. Got it.

Wait 'til Fox News finds out that you think they could be a lefty news outlet because they employ Juan Williams.

Pretty much everybody on Fox other than Hannity criticized Trump yesterday. Are they also anti-Trump?

Here's how Trump recently defined treason, referencing those who chose not to stand and clap for him during the SOTU speech:

“You’re up there and you’ve got half the room going totally crazy, wild—they loved everything, they want to do something great for our country. And you have the other side, even on positive news . . . they were like death and un-American. Un-American. Somebody said, ‘treasonous.’ I mean, yeah, I guess, why not? Can we call that treason? Why not? I mean, they certainly didn’t seem to love our country very much.”

Using your twisted definition, its entirely possible.

I'm using your logic, dimwit. After your defense of Trump's Helsinki debacle, it's clear that there is absolutely nothing you won't defend your Dear Leader for doing. Feckin' lapdog. I'm starting to think you're as dumb as Louie Gohmert (though somehow I think you may take that as a compliment).

Apparently, pissant, you're using no logic at all since I didn't defend "Trump's Helsinki debacle". And of course our discussion of YOUR logic had nothing to do with Helsinki. Rather it was a discussion of whether the WSJ editorial board has been historically supportive of Trump or not. Please try to keep up with these discussions if you're going to participate.

What? That's what this thread is all about - your MAGA "America First" Dear Leader putting Russia first and there has been nothing but whining, misdirecting and obfuscating from you on the topic. Are you now willing to condemn Trump's behavior in Brussels, the UK and/or Helsinki or do you really want to keep dancing around it?

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Wednesday he does not believe Russia is still targeting the United States, contradicting U.S. intelligence assessments that Moscow was continuing to meddle in American elections.

Trump on Tuesday tried to walk back comments that he believed Russian President Vladimir Putin over American intelligence chiefs on Russian interference in the 2016 election. Asked on Wednesday if Russia was still targeting the United States, Trump said, "No."

This is a flat denial of what Dan Coats, DNI, said just a couple days back.

You're right. Finn was being absurd, so that debate tactic, a.k.a. reductio ad absurdum, was quite appropriate.
