Protester Throwing Flags At Trump Is Leftie Activist Who Prev. Chased,Harassed Female Reporter
The Gateway Pundit ^ | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 10/24/2017 3:15:32 PM PDT by GraceG

As Kristinn Taylor of the Gateway Pundit reported, a protester ‘got very close’ as he threw Russian flags at President Donald Trump as he walked though the Capitol Building with Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (KY) on his way to a lunch meeting on tax legislation with Republican senators.

CBS News posted a video clip of Trump and McConnell walking as the flags were thrown. A voice can be heard yelling about “treason”.

Security at the scene was apparently quite lax as the protester had clear aim at the President and it was several seconds before any apparent reaction took place.

Erica Werner with the AP posted a photo of one of the flags, “Protester ID’d self as Ryan Clayton from Americans Take Action got very close to Trump and threw these flags at him”

According to Project Veritas founder James O’Keefe, Ryan Clayton is a well known agitator who once harassed one of his female reporters.

“Ryan Clayton, the guy who was just arrested on nat TV once accosted and verbally harassed a young female- one of my undercover reporters,” tweeted O’Keefe.

It would have set off metal detectors?

I’m pretty sure that the multiple layers of security would have found a hand grenade. We couldn’t even take our key fobs in.

If this guy had a gun we would be having a different discussion right now.

The discussion would be what kind of weapon to use for the upcoming civil war.

Secret Service should have shot him dead on the spot once he started throwing anything at the President.

How was he allowed to get in? Who let him in?

Whoever it is should never be allowed in again. If it’s a news organization, their entire organization should be permanently removed.

I would imagine a Dem Senator or Representative help get him in there.
