Kamala Harris Reacts To Disruptive Protesters
According to USA Today, Harris hit a rally stage in front of about 15,000 attendees in Detroit, Michigan, on Wednesday, August 7. Amid her speech, a group of pro-Palestinian protesters reportedly interrupted her remarks.
“Kamala, Kamala, you can’t hide! We won’t vote for genocide,” they yelled, per the outlet.
Harris initially responded with calm remarks, the outlet adds.
“I’m here because I believe in democracy. I believe everyone’s voice matters. But I’m speaking now. I am speaking now,” she reportedly said.
However, as the “interruptions continued,” the VP decided to amp up her response.
“You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking,” she added as she raised her hands and glared across the room.
