People are allowed to have opinions, even stupid ones, even published in the Times. If the author went to Paris and had a conference with Marcon, in which he advised this in some faux-official capacity, that would be a different story. But still not sedition.

A violation of the Logan act. Sedition is conspiring to overthrow the US government. That is not even close to being the same as "publishing a whiny adolescent rant in the NYT's op-ed page," or "running around Europe telling world leaders to ignore the president because he's a doody-head."

US Egg Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Trump's exposed and righted fallacies of the previous administration, who are grasping at anything to undermine him. .....even if it means undermining the United States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sedition...most people would assume that working against the President's policies, or even attempting to have him impeached and driven out of office, is sedition. It's not, because this: is not the government. This is: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
