1. Corporations are people too

Why not.

2. No.

And you can't put a corporation in the electric chair either or lock a corporation in jail

But that doesn't mean that the Constitution doesn't apply to corporations either.

4. Corporations are run by people. People in the upper echelons of the corp.

make the decisions that affect what that corporation will do in running the business.

The decision was made by people in charge to take money from Russians to promote their cause which was to elect trump.

5. The question wasn't whether corporate officers can be charged with Treason.

it was whether a corporation itself could be prosecuted for treason.

3. Yes, they can - eg if Russia is re-added to the list of the 1917 act.

If they help, then they colluded and conspired, so they fall under the RICO act and all their assets can be seized .
