As long as people like him, who do treasonous actions and espouse treasonous policies, aren't called out about it and brought to justice, there will be more of those like him in positions of power playing their power games. I'm not asking for draconian punishment, but maybe some large fines, a little prison time, depending on the treason, and discrediting who they are.
