“It hands the Democrats a talking point...”
That’s the idea: Force the Democrats to repeatedly use the word in the media. Treason will replace Collusion as the subject of talking points.
They have their own buzz words: “Constitutional Crisis” and “Threat to Democracy and the Rule of Law,” and accusing the Dems and Deep State of Treason when it clearly does not fit reinforces those buzz words and narratives.
They are criminals. They’ve subverted the functions of government and the rule of law above and beyond anything that Nixon’s plumbers ever did or ever could. They used intelligence and law enforcement for partisan political purposes. But they did not commit treason by any stretch. I’m sure they would have if they could have, but the opportunity didn’t present itself, so they didn’t. So the T word doesn’t fit, and it’s loaded with implications that can backfire.
Yep, the dems got 2 yrs worth of media compliance with thee word collusion
Which isn’t even against the law IIRC
