Vice President Harris' Speech Mix-Up: Protesters and Word Salad in Nevada
Nevada, Reno, USAFri Nov 01 2024
Vice President Kamala Harris found herself in a tricky spot during a recent rally in Reno, Nevada. Protesters disrupted her speech, and Harris responded with what's been dubbed her "word salad" – a jumble of phrases that didn't quite make sense. "We're here to fight for democracy, " she said, repeating herself and stumbling over her words as the crowd grew restless. Earlier that day, Harris had also faced protesters at a Phoenix event, where she tried to address their concerns about the conflict in Gaza. Throughout her campaign, Harris has had to deal with anti-Israel demonstrations, and it seems her responses haven't always been clear and concise.
Harris has been no stranger to protests during her campaign. Just the day before the Nevada rally, a protester shouted "Cease-fire now" at an event in Madison, Wisconsin. Harris acknowledged the demand but struggled to find a clear path forward in her response. Her handling of these situations has been criticized, with over 650, 000 Democrats voting "uninstructed" or "uncommitted" in the primaries, unhappy with her administration's approach to the Middle East conflict.
