As little Donny Two-Scoops has taken us to war with Iran, this makes his statement literal treason.

We have a treason-spouting Republican for president. If you're older than your twenties or so, that's one of those statements you just have to let sit and soak for a minute. For all their faults—and they are legion—the party has always cast itself as defender of America's ideals. Yet a Republican president is spouting literal treason, and the response from his party? Crickets.
