Protester Throws Russian Flags At Trump As He Arrives For Capitol Hill Tax Lunch

President Trump was met by a protester who threw Russian flags at him and chanted "Trump is treason!" as he arrived on Capitol Hill to urge Senate Republicans to pass tax cuts.

While the president was entering the weekly GOP lunch on Capitol Hill, escorted by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., a man appeared to have gotten inside the press scrum, throwing the small flags that had the word "TRUMP" emblazoned in gold.

The showdown had at least one senator jokingly anticipating another possible face-off during the lunch between Trump and the senators, as Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., walked into the meeting carrying a bag of popcorn.
