Is it illegal to display a foreign flag with a US flag if the foreign flag is larger?
No, it is just in bad taste. What is illegal is to display two national flags on the same pole, one below the other. They must be on separate poles at the same height. If on flag is the US flag, then the US flag must be on the left-hand pole as the observer is looking at it.
U.S. Flag Code as contained in Federal Code RL30243 states: "When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they are to be flown from separate staffs of the same height. The flags should be of approximately equal size. International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation above that
of another nation in time of peace."
