Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee for president, fired back at pro-Palestinian protesters of Israel's war in Gaza as they interrupted her speech during a Wednesday night campaign rally in Detroit.

"You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I'm speaking," Harris said with a long stare, drawing loud cheers from supporters in the crowd before chants of, "Not going back!"

Them's the breaks of a Democracy. If you don't have the majority you protest and agitate and try to sway support, but she's the one that risks swaying votes by providing a response. --Make no mistake, I don't like her. I don't support her, but if she's smart and she want's to win then she needs to try not to alienate any more voters than necessary.

Exactly she went with what she did. Does it alienate me. no. will it someone else yes. will anything she says around this subject alienate some. yes.
