According to The Washington Post and other media reports, at a rally in Michigan on Wednesday, U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris' speech was interrupted when about six protesters shouted: "Kamala, Kamala, you can't hide! We will not vote for genocide!" Faced with this scene, Harris adopted a strategy similar to Biden's, affirming the protesters' right to express their opinions while trying to bring the focus back to the content of her speech.

"We believe in democracy and everyone's voice is important, but I need to keep speaking at this moment," Harris responded at the scene. When the shouting continued, she directly told the protesters: "If you really want Donald Trump to win, then keep shouting like this. Otherwise, please allow me to finish my speech."

These remarks can’t help but remind people of Harris’ statement in the 2020 U.S. election vice presidential debate: “Mr. Vice President, I am speaking.”

It is worth noting that this is the first time Harris has encountered such an interruption at a rally since she succeeded Biden as the Democratic presidential candidate, which shows the importance of the Gaza war issue in the minds of some Michigan voters. Michigan is one of the Arab American communities in the United States. Democrats are worried that if it is not handled properly, the Gaza war issue may become a hidden danger of losing local votes in the November election.
