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!”

    There is no room for these things to be a topic of conversation if Trump wins. This way of thinking has no path to resolving the problem.

        That assumes that things haven’t changed, and that Trump doesn’t represent the backlash to that change. The Dems don’t change things as fast as you would like, but why is back pedaling better than that? I swear, this whole line of reasoning sounds like some astroturfing movement to get liberals to skip the election. The republicans only win when voter counts are low. You are talking like you want Trump to win.

          I’m not skipping the election. I’m voting for the candidate who is standing against the genocide, Jill Stein.

        Dems need to learn kicking the can down the road doesn’t work when scientists say the road ends in like 40 years unless we change big things.
