“You know what?” Harris said. “If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking.”
Her comments were met with applause from her supporters.
This is not a new situation for the Democratic party. During President Joe Biden’s campaign for reelection, pro-Palestinian protesters kept close tabs on him, following him around the campaign trail and chanting the same anti-war messages now being heard at Harris’ rallies.
Harris, aligned with Biden in vowing support for Israel in its war with Hamas, stated that Israel has a right to defend itself. She has also emphasized that “how it does so matters,” acknowledging the devastation and deterioration in Gaza since the war began.
AT A CAMPAIGN EVENT IN MICHIGAN ON WEDNESDAY –
VICE PRESIDENT KAMALA HARRIS WAS MET WITH PROTESTERS –
CRITICIZING THE ADMINISTRATION’S HANDLING OF THE WAR IN GAZA.
[Chants]
[KAMALA HARRIS]
I’m here because we believe in democracy. Everyone’s voice matters. But I am speaking now. I am speaking now.”
[applause]
[KARAH RUCKER]
AS PROTESTERS CONTINUED TO SHOUT AT THE DEMOCRATIC PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE – AND HARRIS CONTINUED HER SPEECH –
THE TENSION GREW IN THE ROOM.
WITH HARRIS TAKING A SHARPER TONE ADDRESSING THE PROTESTERS A SECOND TIME.
[KAMALA HARRIS]
“You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise I’m speaking.”
[applause]
[KAMALA HARRIS]
HARRIS – STARING DOWN THE PROTESTERS AS HER CROWD CHEERED HER ON IN SUPPORT.
THIS ISN’T ANYTHING NEW FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
WHEN PRESIDENT JOE BIDEN WAS STILL RUNNING FOR RE-ELECTION –
PRO-PALESTINIAN PROTESTERS KEPT CLOSE TABS ON THE PRESIDENT –
FOLLOWING HIM AROUND THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL –
CHANTING THE SAME ANTI-WAR MESSAGES NOW BEING HEARD INSIDE HARRIS’ RALLIES.
HARRIS HAS BEEN ALIGNED WITH BIDEN IN VOWING SUPPORT FOR ISRAEL IN ITS WAR WITH HAMAS –
SAYING ISRAEL HAS A RIGHT TO DEFEND ITSELF –
BUT ADDING “**HOW IT DOES SO MATTERS” –
ACKNOWLEDGING THE DEVASTATION AND DETERIORATION OF GAZA SINCE THE WAR BEGAN.
