Clydfo,
He won't be tried for treason. Prosecutions for treason are extremely rare and any caselaw on the issue is many decades old. It's much easier to prosecute him under U.S. statutes dealing with "sedition" as the U.S. did with the "blind cleric" who conspired to blow up the World Trade Center a few years back.
Looking at this in the shoes of the "prosecutor" it's a tough uphill burden to go the "treason" route and there are easier ways to get the job done, if they choose to prosecute him at all.
