Kamala Harris faced criticism from the Trump campaign and conservative commentators after an interrupted speech in Reno, Nevada, on Thursday night was marked by what some described as a “word salad.”
During her remarks, Harris was interrupted by a heckler, prompting her to address the disruption while continuing her message about defending democracy.
The interruption occurred as Harris was delivering a speech on the importance of democratic values. After shouting was heard from the audience, she paused and addressed the heckler directly.

“You know what?” she said. “Let me say something about this.” Harris continued, “We are here because we are fighting for a democracy. Fighting for a democracy. And understand the difference here, understand the difference here, moving forward, moving forward, understand the difference here.”
Harris went on to emphasize the stakes of the election, saying, “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.” As the crowd voiced their support to drown out the heckler, Harris reassured them, “That’s OK, that’s alright. That’s OK.”
She then added, “You know what? Democracy can be complicated; sometimes, it’s okay. We’re fighting for the right for people to be heard and not jailed because they speak their mind. We know what’s at stake.”
Conservative critics quickly reacted on social media, with many pointing to her comments as a “word salad” response to the disruption.

In her appeal to Nevada voters, Harris encouraged the audience to consider her vision, stating, “Nevada, I am here asking for your vote. I am asking for your vote.”
The Reno appearance comes as Kamala intensifies campaign efforts in Nevada, a critical state in the upcoming election.
However, the heckling and subsequent conservative criticism highlight the polarized nature of the campaign trail as Election Day approaches.
