They have struck again!
It appears that the same heckler who interrupted a Marco Rubio rally on Sunday, pretending to be a jilted boyfriend, has now convinced a Fox News reporter that Donald Trump supporters in Florida are boasting armbands.
Fox’s Carl Cameron (pictured above) produced a segment on the Trump armbanders, which Shepard Smith aired during his show Monday:

But take a look at the screengrab of the troll/comedian from the Rubio rally:
Here is the video from that event:

Compare with the photo below from Cameron’s producer Nick Kalman posted Monday afternoon:
The armband boasters appear also to be the same guys who were caught on camera wearing “Settle for Hillary” t-shirts at a Clinton rally last month.
Genius troll? Next-level comic bit? Who can say?
UPDATE — 4:15 p.m. ET: Kalman, the Fox producer, updated his Twitter to say the pair appeared to be “professional trolls.”
As did Fox anchor Shepard Smith:
UPDATE — 4:35 p.m. ET: Cameron clarified on Neil Cavuto‘s hour that the Trump campaign was not handing out the armbands — it was merely two men with a “terrible sense of humor.”

Hey, I've got an armband just like that.
Anti-trumps such as fox news are so desperate to keep the Trump-is-a-Nazi meme alive that they’ll grasp at anything. They got played.
I remember Carl from his days back in Cleveland.Nice guy,but not too sharp.
Guess Faux News didn’t take the bait on the yellow Star of David by armed protesters.
Carl Cameran ALWAYS slants things against conservative candidates whenever given the opportunity to do so. I base this upon personal observations over time.
I think this is funny. really.
How stooooop-id can the media be?
Where can I buy that armband?
I can use it for my 32oz soda.
The problem is not “ two men with a terrible sense of humor”. The problem is the media who will fall for anything that fits their agenda.
They been Pwned!..........................
Where can I get me a Trump Koozie!.........................
No wonder they were stupid enough to hire Ben Shapiro. Thanks markomalley.
These guys are genius. That retard is the best Fox has?
Communist in the streets,unfair treaties,Wall street,U.S. Banks time to party like its’ 1929!
@ShepNewsTeam Re: The Trump armbands. . . You REPORTED, and I DECIDED . . . that you are an idiot!!! ROTFLMAO!!!— Penelope Dreadful (@PenelopeDredful) March 14, 2016
Well at least they are equal opportunity trolls.
The damage is done. There will be plenty of fools out there that will believe this “joke” as they hear about it through the rumor mill or Fakebook.
Any you're a professional doofus, Shep!...................
I think these guys trolled Cruz too.
They have nothing to do with Trump.
