Sunday on MSNBC’s “Kasie DC,” Democratic strategist James Carville reacted to the report that Russian intelligence offered Afghan militants bounties to kill U.S. soldiers by demanding answers from the White House about what members of the administration knew.
Carville argued there is a “case” to be made that President Donald Trump committed “treason” if he knew about the bounty prior to speaking to West Point soldiers at their graduation and still invited Russia President Vladimir Putin to the G7 summit.
“If the reporting is right and he knew about it, and he invited Putin to the G7, all right, there is a Carville case to make that this violates the treason provision in Article III of the United States Constitution, and people have to start reading Article III. Read what the definition of treason is,” Carville emphasized.
