Falsifying criminal evidence is neither. That would depend, I would think, on the purpose of falsifying the criminal evidence. A coup attempt, soft or otherwise, is an attempt to overthrow the legitimate government of the United States. This act, especially if done in concert with other nations, would be considered an act of war. It wouldn’t even matter who those actions were taken at the behest of, as enemies can be both foreign and domestic. 1

Fraud, even in conspiracy with foreign governments, is neither levying war nor giving aid and comfort to an enemy.

Fraud, even in conspiracy with foreign governments, is neither levying war nor giving aid and comfort to an enemy. If the fraud is part and parcel to an attempt to overthrow the government via coup, yes, it is.

Acts of war can precipitate declarations against the aggressor. That fact does not mitigate the true act of treason. Edited October 31, 2019 by TakeYouToTasker 1

Who's the enemy within who is committing acts of war to overthrow the country and change our form of government? You want to argue it is a coup, fine. But treason is just plain stupid, on par with the far left's TDS. I daresay the people you feel are treasonous would argue they have acted out of a sense of loyalty to their country, Trump's behavior unbefitting a US President and therefore anti-American.

Any sovereign nation collaborating would be committing an act of war. In this case England, Italy, France, Australia, and several others. Committing an act of war defines them as an enemy. However, enemies can be both foreign *or* domestic. Let’s take a step back. What actions would one have to take to be considered a domestic enemy? The attempted overthrow of the legitimate government wouldn’t rise to those standards? Also, it does not matter if they thought they were justified because they *really, really, really* disliked the guy who won. That’s not justification. That’s motive.

So did Russia commit an act of war in 2016?
