Perhaps that would be considered treason under a monarchy, but not in the U.S.
"The United States Code at 18 U.S.C. § 2381 states: Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States."

That sounds like Trump himself, so I guess he's projecting. Opposition parties, investigations, and impeachment hearings are all entirely legal.
