I thought that was reserved only for the current president... not former presidents. And I truly am sick to death of all the privilege he's being afforded. Whether or not one can define what he did as treason as per the constitution, there's no doubt in my mind we're just talking semantics. He's a traitor to this country, and should be treated as such... NOT treated like he's royalty. I'd really like to see him and his hardcore magats deported to Russia or Hungary. Let them live out their fascist dreams over there. I'm tired of lolly coddling these neo nazis - especially when BLM or any progressive march gets nothing but set upon by police and counter protestors; usually ending in violence.
