Don't get me wrong but as I have said many times, I don't like him, I most likely never will but I would never misquote anyone on that basis.

Someone said they were treasonous, and he agreed with them - that's calling someone treasonous...

"They were like death and un-American. Un-American. Somebody said, 'Treasonous.' I mean, yeah, I guess, why not," he said to laughter.
"Can we call that treason? Why not," he added. He made the remarks during a speech at a manufacturing plant in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Of course, apparently now it was just "tongue in cheek"...
Why do I call him Russki Donald?
Well his son said in 2008
Quote:
“In terms of high-end product influx into the US,” he says, “Russians make up a pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets … We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.”

In the same year, he sold a property in Florida, in the middle of a property recession due to the economic crisis, to a Russian for over twice what he paid for it 4 years before (he paid $40 million, received $95 million).
Let's not forget Donald Jr's meeting with a Russian lawyer, or the fact that Trump seems to always praise Putin, and hardly ever criticises him, or that Trump ignored the sanctions on Russia passed by both the House and the Senate by overwhelming majorities.
