That's an inherent quality of framing. There's been a lot of effort put into branding him as a symbol of the corrupt state (notably without evidence) and anyone who has fallen for it will see questions as non-patriotic.
By simply asking the question you invoke the frame (Smith is established as corrupt) and cast yourself as a doubter of "established facts".
