Vice President Kamala Harris appeared visibly unsettled when she faced hecklers during her rally in Nevada on Thursday, leading her to once again deliver her well-known, disjointed remarks.
“You know what? Let me say something about this,” Harris declared amid the commotion at the event in Reno.
“We are here because we are fighting for a democracy,” the vice president exclaimed with frustration. “Fighting for a democracy.”
“And understand the difference here, understand the difference here, moving forward, moving forward, understand the difference here,” she continued, struggling to articulate her thoughts.

“What we are looking at is a difference in this election – let’s move forward and see where we are because on the issue, for example, freedom of choice…” the Democratic candidate persisted as the heckling grew louder, cutting her off once more.
“That’s OK. That’s alright. That’s OK,” Harris responded as her supporters worked to drown out the dissenters.
Earlier in the day, while speaking in Phoenix, the Democratic presidential hopeful faced interruptions from anti-Israel activists multiple times.
“Hey guys, you know what? Here’s the thing…” Harris said as she addressed the protesters.
“Let’s talk for a moment about Gaza,” she went on. “We all want this war to end and to get the hostages out, and I will work on it full-time when I am elected president.”
Before that, Harris acknowledged the disturbance, saying, “That’s all right,” as her backers attempted to overpower the protesters with chants of “Ka-ma-ka, Ka-ma-la.”
“Democracy can be complicated, but we believe in democracy and the right of everyone to have their voices heard,” she stated, pressing on despite the interruptions.
Harris has encountered persistent anti-Israel demonstrations at her events throughout her campaign.
On Wednesday, while in Madison, Wis., a protester positioned near the stage yelled, “Cease-fire now,” right after Harris started her speech.
“Listen, we all want the war in Gaza to end and get the hostages out as soon as possible,” she replied. “And I will do everything in my power to make it work.”
“And everyone has a right to be heard, but right now, I am speaking.”
Over 650,000 Democrats across the country expressed their discontent by voting “uninstructed” or “uncommitted” in the Democratic presidential primaries earlier this year, protesting the Harris-Biden administration’s approach to the Middle East conflict.
