Trump's 'TREASON?' tweet instantly becomes a meme
Trump responded to a very public exposure exactly how you'd expect.
The New York Timespublished a wild op-ed anonymously written by a "senior official" on Wednesday that detailed the "quiet resistance within the administration" to stop Trump's ""worst inclinations."

Here's how the Constitution defines treason in Article III, Section 3:
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court. The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.
The code also notes that treason is punishable by five years in prison, a $10,000 minimum fine, or death. Those found guilty of treason "shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States."
Yikes.
But as Vox points out, neither the op-ed writer nor Trump is guilty of treason.
But believing that Bobby Shmurda shouldn't be free? That's questionable.
