Yup, sedition is the word that is the lesser offense than treason. A traitor is actively pursuing a plot to overthrow the state (usually involving an assasination of the head of state). Sedition is your general gumming up the works, sabotage, etc that we see from Obama holdovers and RINOs.
Treason
In law, treason is criminal disloyalty, typically to the state. It is a crime that covers some of the more extreme acts against one's nation or sovereign. This usually includes things such as participating in a war against one's native country, attempting to overthrow its government, spying on its military, its diplomats, or its secret services for a hostile and foreign power, or attempting to kill its head of state
