When facts are treason, it's time to 86 the government.
And for those who don't (or pretend not to) understand American English common usage, that means "remove," not "kill."

American here you orange fat fuck! Your war is lost, your deals suck and your hair is pathetic like your little mind.
Treasonous is what you do, every day.
You forgot about the mushroom in the room...
Cut them some slack, it's really easy to overlook
If the law punished real treason, then the entirety of the Heritage Foundation, AFPI, the Republican Party, heck, the majority of evangelicals would be swinging
Stop making me wet!! 😡
Just like it's treasonous in Russia to call their 'special military operation' a war.
What a country to mirror yourself to.
The truth, since he wants people to know it, is they assassinated the leaders & military infrastructure hoping Iran would collapse. And when it didn't there was no plan. Generals and regional experts presumably advised on the sheer stupidity of the attack but none had the balls to resign. So now there is an oil crisis, and when the war is over Iran will emerge from this even more entrenched and dominant than ever.
The US are a bunch of losers across the board.
As an American, yes. Ugh.
Trump says US is not winning war in Iran?
I'm not saying, just asking.
Typically a sign things are going well......
Isn't there, like, a VERY specific definition of treason, right there in the Constitution? Specifically to prevent people from pointing at stuff they don't like and going "that's TREASON!"? Something about needing two witnesses or something too, I think.

The US is not winning war in Iran
I would never say that the US is not winning the war in Iran, because I do not want to be deported by ICE, Trump's S.S., since I have a foreign look. Heil Drumph, heil U.S. of A!
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
the US is not winning the war in iran.
It was treason to launch an insurrection against the United States on January 1st, 2021.
It was treason to send the US to war in Iran, unauthorized by Congress, spending US taxpayer dollars, depleting US munitions stockpiles, throwing away US lives, alienating US allies, ruining US strategic defense posture, devastating US soft power, and tanking the US economy.
These are only some of the examples of treason Donny has committed. The full list would be much longer.
It's treason to act as a Russian asset as well.
And it's worse than treason to rape kids.
all i got to say is "BOO" we coming for you. If the reaper don't get you first.
Trump thinks any criticism of him and his failures is treason.
he likes to frame it as treason, because he wants to kill people who are critical and oppose him.
“Truth is treason in an empire of lies.”
From Ron fucking Paul of all people.
He was quoting George Orwell, a person who would have despised him.

If the goal of the war was to increase gas prices by about 50%, murder a bunch of random schoolchildren, and accomplish nothing else, then they're doing a real bang up job of it.
accomplish nothing else
Come on now, give credit where credit is due. There was also a shit ton of wealth transferred to Trump and his gang via insider trading, messing around with markets in general and a ton of other shady business. Russia (and likely Putin directly) and China also benefited from the chaos created. And also global instability increased by quite a lot, but one could argue that was only a side effect and not a direct goal.
USA! USA!!
the us is NOT winnning the war in iran
BAM. That’s treason. Off with your head!
The truth is treason. Lies are patriotism. War is peace. Freedom is slavery.
Awfully close to Arbeit macht frei

I thought it wasn't a war but a military intervention? But since this is coming from the biggest traitor of the US, you know..
