@Bix If concrete proof of that influence could be found, couldn't he be charged with treason and (if found guilty) executed?

No. The crime of treason is only available for use in wartime. There are espionage laws that could be used against Trump, but they don't have a death penalty, like treason.
@IrelandTorin
W/ the law, you have to be very exact. They will only count the big ones - the ones that our Congress declares are wars.
@Bix If I'm not mistaken, the US has something like five active wars at the moment. This is wartime.
