Judith High: Trump went too far

Regarding the July 28 news article “Trump to Russia: Find Clinton’s missing emails”: I read that Donald Trump invited Russia to hack Hillary Clinton’s email systems and release the emails to the press. He encouraged and endorsed a foreign nation to commit espionage against this country.

I am shaking with rage, that a nominated candidate for president of the United States would publicly and repeatedly make this statement. This is not free speech or a joke. It looks like treason to me. He should be investigated, and hopefully, prosecuted.

This offensive, treasonous statement shows he should never be president of our great country or entrusted with our security. Shame on him.
