Representative-Elect Pat Ryan (D-NY) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Alex Wagner Tonight” that former President Donald Trump is “essentially traitorous.”
Tuesday, Ryan defeated his Republican opponent in a special election in New York’s 19th district.
Wagner said, “When we talk about democratic freedoms, and you look at the polling, and I think voters are legitimately concerned about freedoms. Some people sort of read into that democratic norms, elections, the existential threat posed by Donald Trump. Is he the one who talked about on the campaign trail? There are so many investigations right now I think it makes people’s heads spin. I think it is worth covering because this is a former president of the United States. As a politician in a swing district who’s trying to win a seat, hold on to the seat, how much are the words’ Donald Trump’ uttered?”
Ryan said, “We are not afraid to call out Donald Trump as someone who, I believe, is essentially traitorous at this point. I had a top-secret clearance. I was an Army officer. If I had done what he did, I would’ve been in jail, 100%. No questions asked. And that is has certainly been part of it.”
He added, “The polling that we saw a few days ago, that threats to democracy are now top-of-the-line. And it’s this cumulative effect of, OK, in 48 hours, you put more assault weapons on the street, you ripped away reproductive freedom and access to abortion. Then you dismantled the EPA. We are hearing more about January 6. We see what’s continuing happen with the president. It’s just guardrails of democracy increasingly being hit, and that’s a wake-up call for folks.”

No actually you wouldn’t. And you were never president.
Says the guy that has never had a job.
So this guy gets to sit in that seat for months? What a loser.
Maybe he will be in jail soon.
“Is he the one who talked about on the campaign trail? As a politician in a swing district who’s trying to win a seat, hold on to the seat, how much are the words’ Donald Trump’ uttered?”
Gibberish.
Hunter and Joe Biden committed very serious crimes and they have still not been charged with anything, let alone go to jail.
Ha, ha, ha. More likely, he'd receive a medal from fellow Democrats.
you weren’t President....douche-nozzle....
So, which lie is Ryan referring to that is “traitorous?”
So NY has elected another brain dead libtard, a complete ignoramus. Way to go, NY. Bringing about your own demise.
Pat Ryan being held until the TDS wagon and nets arrive.
Democrats like to talk about treason, but, they never mention any actual act of treason that Trump has committed that makes him a traitor.
On the contrary, it’s the democrats at the top who have actually committed acts of treason, like Obama and Hillary and Biden and Bill Clinton and Schiff and Nadler. Their crimes can actually be found and named, whereas, no one can name a single act of treason by Trump.
Democrats think that just accusing someone of treason is enough to label that someone a traitor, but they can never actually point to any single act of treason.
Being for MAGA would make someone a traitor, as far as most democrats are concerned.
LOL that clown has NO idea does he..Dems NEVER EVER EVERRRR get punished for anything..if Trump were a Dem this would be a non issue
Then you went to the Alexander Vindmann school of Idiocracy to get your training. The President has the final authority on classification. He can classify or declassify on his authority. You would think being an Army officer you would understand one of the most basic elements of classification. The Commander in Chief has that authority.
Pat Ryan is full of shit.

like donating your salary for your entire term?
Told ya. All Democrat/RINO politicians have claimed, are claiming, and will repeatedly claim President Trump is supposedly a "treasonous traitor" who caused "January 6," "took" our most highly "classified nuclear secrets," and will sell them to "Russia, Russia, Russia" (even though he's a multi-billionaire). In addition, all Democrat/RINO politicians will label their Republican or conservative political opponents as enthusiastic supporters of the supposedly "treasonous traitor" President Trump.
So thank you, Democrat U.S. Representative-elect Ryan, for being yet another totally predictable, blabbering Democrat/RINO politician who once again proves my point through their own idiotic words.
Donald Trump as someone who, I believe, is essentially traitorous at this point.
