For that little stunt, he actually should be charged with treason. The real kind, where they used to hang people.
It also reveals a errant mind, incapable of serving in any executive role. Given that he had that predilection (that is, to defect to the enemy in event of war), there was no need to share this with the Chinese. It only served to weaken us in the eyes of our enemy, which was no doubt a conscious or subconscious motivation for doing so. THEN, later, to tell the entire world that he’d committed such a sinister, cowardly act, put the whole thing in another league of mental derangement.
Exactly right ! Treason.
