Treason is a violation of the law.

As for misdemeanor - funny.

It may be. It may not be. At the level of the President, negligence can be treasonous.

What if the President decided that he wanted to take an extended golf vacation for a couple of years, broken only by the mandated State of the Union address? That would not be illegal, but would certainly be an issue of misdemeanor.
