A protester heard shouting “Trump is treason” threw Russian flags at President Trump on Tuesday as he entered the GOP policy lunch.
The man identified himself as Ryan Clayton of “Americans Take Action.”
“Why are you talking about tax cuts when you should be talking about treason?” the man was heard shouting in videos as the president walked by.
Trump was walking next to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) as the protester shouted.
ABC News reported earlier this year that, the same man asked Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, a Senior White House adviser, to sign a Russian flag for him as Kushner was leaving a closed appearance before the Senate Intelligence Committee.
Also in a prank move, Clayton was reportedly also the activist who got attendees at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) to wave Russian flags when Trump gave a speech.
Trump is huddling with Senate Republicans at a policy lunch on Tuesday on Capitol Hill in hopes of finding party unity and pitching the tax plans – a core GOP agenda aimed to win more credibility from the base.
