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.
