What I want to know is, does bolstering the confidence of the enemy qualify as "Aid and Comfort"?

Actually, the Constitutional definition of Treason is:

levying war against them (the United States) or in adhering to their enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort.

So giving Aid and Comfort is a function of adhering to the enemies of the United States. Adhere means: to give support or maintain loyalty.
