During Donald Trump‘s appearance and speech today at CPAC, supporters of the President were seen waving a very peculiar flag.
Sure it said Trump on it but stripping looks oddly familiar…

Yep… those are Russian flags with ‘TRUMP’ written on the front, I’m sure unbeknownst to those waving them.
Organizers and officials at CPAC eventually took notice and started to confiscate the Kremlin friendly flags. But my god, how funny and ironic would that scene be with Trump giving his speech and a bunch of tiny Russian flags being waved?
Crowd at CPAC waving these little pro-Trump flags that look exactly like the Russian flag. Staffers quickly come around to confiscate them. pic.twitter.com/YhPpkwFCNc
