I mean, the first amendment allows them to make whatever comment they want about what they believe the punishment should be. You remember the First Amendment, right?

Anyway, 18 U.S. Code § 2381 - says treasonous MF can face the death penalty. I think deportation is a slightly smaller penalty.

“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.“
