Seems to me that in that context the word “enemies” specifically includes potential domestic enemies.

Look, I've read the Federal Convention Debate; Madison's notes and then some. Yours is a stretch.

Doesn’t say it has to be state actors/enemies.

"War" is capitalized for a reason.

You can "seems to me" all you want. That doesn't mean it's true.

And those who would fabricate evidence to try to oust the duly-elected President would necessarily qualify as enemies of the United States.

Certainly enemies of the President, not necessarily enemies of the United States nor its Constitution. There were plenty of those who would have given their left nut to oust Bubba, Zero, or Brandon physically, believing (correctly) that each had betrayed the Constitution and his Oath of Office. That doesn't make them traitors.

We have a process to remove Presidents who break their oaths.

We also have a process to elect Presidents, and for bureaucrats to try to oust the duly-elected President through means other than impeachment or the 25th Amendment process.... is an assault on both our Constitution AND the individual states in the United States who contributed to the lawful election of that President. And ESPECIALLY when the people doing it have sworn to protect and defend the US Constitution from the very people that they themselves are.

So what, exactly, WOULD be treason as you see it?
