Obama and Biden Did Not Commit Treason

In a July 19, 2020 tweet, President Donald Trump demanded justice for being spied on by former President Barack Obama and his Vice President, Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. Trump amounted this supposed espionage to treason, stating that if their positions were reversed the guilty party would be getting “50 years.” Trump ended his tweet with the exclamatory “NEVER FORGET!!!!”

The claim was soon reposted by users on social media.
