This is some fascinating sleuthing from CNN.
Here’s video I and (many others) found in Sayoc’s twitter feed. It’s Sayoc at a Trump rally. There’s no clearly identifying information to tell us which rally it was.
This video was posted June 7th 2018. But there was no rally in FLA at that time. Can anyone see any identifying structures in the video? pic.twitter.com/C79GRSruGy

However there is some clues that point to a February 18 2017 Trump rally in Melbourne, Florida. Sure enough CNN looked through its video archive and found footage of Sayoc at that rally on February 18th, 2001. He’s carrying an anti-CNN banner and appeared to be holding near the media pen.
