Sure. To take just one provision of the Espionage Act it is illegal to deliver national defense information to someone not entitled to have it. Cruz is not entitled to have the classified information provided to the Commander-in-Chief, since he is not a natural born ciitizen.
In the United States, people are tried by jury. The jury would determine how much if any complicity the defendant had in installing the Canadian born son of a Cuban mercenary into an office for which he is ineligible.
Here's some more detail on appropriate penalties for installing a foreign-born usurper in the White House, per Wikipedia:
Hanging
The short drop is performed by placing the condemned prisoner on the back of a cart, horse, or other vehicle, with the noose around the neck. The object is then moved away, leaving the person dangling from the rope. A ladder was also commonly used with the condemned being forced to ascend, after which the noose was tied and the ladder pulled away or turned, leaving the condemned hanging.[4][5] Another method involves using a stool, which the condemned is required to stand on, being kicked away. The guards at the Stutthof concentration camp who were sentenced to death were executed by short-drop hanging—they were placed in the noose while standing or sitting on a flat-bottomed truck, and they were pushed off and the trucks driven away.
LONG DROP: This process, also known as the measured drop, was introduced to Britain in 1872 by William Marwood as a scientific advance on the standard drop. Instead of everyone falling the same standard distance, the person's height and weight[10] were used to determine how much slack would be provided in the rope so that the distance dropped would be enough to ensure that the neck was broken, but not so much that the person was decapitated.
electric chair
the condemned person is strapped to a specially built wooden chair and electrocuted through electrodes placed on the head and leg. various cycles (differing in voltage and duration) of alternating current are passed through the individual's body, in order to cause fatal damage to the internal organs (including the brain). The first more powerful jolt of electric current was designed to pass through the head and cause immediate unconsciousness and brain death. The second less powerful jolt was designed to cause fatal damage to the vital organs. Death may also be caused by electrical overstimulation of the heart.
firing squad
normally composed of several military personnel or law enforcement officers. Usually, all members of the group are instructed to fire simultaneously, thus preventing both disruption of the process by a single member and identification of the member who fired the lethal shot. To avoid the disfigurement of multiple shots to the head, the shooters are typically instructed to aim at the heart, sometimes aided by a paper target. The prisoner is typically blindfolded or hooded, as well as restrained.
lethal injection
This kills the person by first putting them to sleep, and then stopping the breathing and heart, in that order. Typically, three drugs are used in lethal injection. Sodium thiopental is used to induce unconsciousness, pancuronium bromide (Pavulon) to cause muscle paralysis and respiratory arrest, and potassium chloride to stop the heart.
Hope this helps!
