I really don't know what to say about this.
From what I've read, someone was passing them out to attendees as they entered the conference hall.
Could have been for a number of reasons. Could have been a liberal plant trying, desperately, to further the Russia link. Could have been a mere troll who delights in mayhem. Could have been a true believer that admires Russia for its help.
Whatever the motivation, I think it likely that the individuals photographed with the flag had no clue it was a Russian flag. I imagine only about 5 percent of Americans, if that, know what the Russian flag looks like. Probably just saw red, white, and blue, with Trump's stupid name printed on it, and figured it a great thing indeed.
