Pompeii is doing good where he's at
>if I'm not mistaken there's actually currently no legal framework to prosecute a president for treason
You are mistaken anon. Article II, section 4-
The President, Vice President and all Civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of,Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
Then Article II , section 3 -
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.
Which leads us to 18 U.S.C. § 2381 -
Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.
Not article II, section 3, but rather Article III , section 3 which gives the authority to congress to define the punishment fir treason. Forgot an I.
