Trump didn't receive the warmest Capitol Hill welcome thanks to this protester

When Donald Trump arrived on Capitol Hill this afternoon to meet with GOP senators to discuss tax reform, one protester was waiting for just the right moment to make a stand using tiny Russian flags.

The initially unidentified protester threw a handful of flags at Trump as he strode by alongside Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and yelled at Trump before being detained by security.

"Trump is treason," the man shouted repeatedly. "Why are you talking about tax cuts when you should be talking about treason?"

As he was being led away by security, the protester identified himself as Ryan Clayton of Americans Take Action.

Clayton was reportedly one of the people behind a prank at this past year's CPAC, the annual Conservative Political Action conference, at which tiny Russian flags with Trump's name emblazoned on them were handed out to attendees.

Today's incident probably didn't make Trump feel any more relaxed as among the planned attendees at the lunch was Tennessee Senator Bob Corker who Trump has been feuding with, including in tweets sent earlier on Tuesday.
