Meet the environmental activists photobombing GOP candidates one by one

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) gets photobombed by 350 Action.350 Action

A group of activists are photobombing Republican presidential candidates in New Hampshire with critical messages about their positions on climate change.

The latest target of the environmental group 350 Action's photo campaign was Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) on Tuesday morning, when an advocate unveiled a shirt in front of him that declared, "I'M WITH CLIMATE DENIER."

Elaine Colligan, a 22-year-old fellow with 350 Action, subsequently told Business Insider that the stunt is a throwback to the famous novelty "I'm With Stupid" T-shirts.

"Every presidential candidate, especially Republicans, needs to be better on climate change," Colligan said in a phone interview. "Our job is to make climate denial look as ridiculous as it is."

In addition to Rubio, activists have snuck into photos with Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), Ohio Gov. John Kasich (R), and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R). In the case of Walker, 350 Action tricked the governor into posing with a giant fake check from David and Charles Koch, the billionaire industrialist conservative megadonors.
