He is clearly setting up a scenario where he can declare Obama a traitor. If he orders him to be arrested, he will be arrested. This is what he is starting to set up right now.
He has had Barr exonerate Flynn. Flynn was supposed to be in jail for lying to Pence, but Pence has now said he did not. Don't you think that this is all highly peculiar?

It's anything but completely absurd...nothing can be counted out with the current administration.
