I see no reason to think it was a joke"I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

I was already thinking of starting a thread on the many Trump-russia links. Russian investment in Trumps businesses, Trump and Putin complementing each other, Russian hackers in the DNC systems, Trump mostly ignoring the party platform except interfering to ensure America wasn't blocking a Russian takeover of Estonia, wanting to pull out of NATO etc... lots of Trump links to Russia, none of which is highly suspicious in its own right, but they've begun to add up.
It's possible that Vlad simply sees Hillary as a war-mongering hawk and Trump as a simpleton and also a noninterventionist and so thinks a Trump presidency will allow Russia to expand militarily in a way that a Clinton presidency won't."I hate him passionately", he's "a demonic force" - Tucker Carlson, in private, on Donald Trump
"Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism" - George Orwell
"[Capitalism] as it exists today is, in my opinion, the real source of evils. I am convinced there is only one way to eliminate these grave evils, namely through the establishment of a socialist economy" - Albert Einstein

Obvious sarcastic hyperbole to mock the DNC claim that Russia hacked them
Yeah convict Trump on treason over a joke while letting Hillary get away with breaking national security laws and the DNC rigging the nomination
That sounds about right

I think you can make a case for it being an idiotic thing to say - especially from a presidential candidate. But that doesn't make it treason in any real sense."He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." - Jim Elliot
