I watched a longer clip that showed two interruptions with responses and explained that she had already met with a group of protestors prior to the rally. I found her response succinct and tough, and the crowd agreed.
She gave a better response today in Arizona, during her speech when the protesters started yelling again - calling on both Hamas and Israel to end the war and release the hostages.
Yeah, she gave them the Mom Stare and what for... Not giving shit to the woman in the room. It reminded me of the staff meeting where "Evan" interrupted me and I said "Evan.. what exactly is your role here? Your title? Okay, Tech Evan, I acknowledge your impulse control challenges, but I am speaking here and if you cannot control yourself from speaking over me and interrupting, I suggest you go back to your workstation and join us on Zoom on mute. So as I was saying.."
If we are to survive we need the Mom Stare and the what for, absolutely.
I'm sick and tired of men (I'm a male, by the way) behaving like clowns, boors, and assholes and parading themselves back and forth and up and down as if professional wrestling is the same thing as the work of government. Or for that matter, life.
In other words, people who seem to think playing "air guitar" is the same thing as being Andres Segovia.
The MAGA "talent show" is an orgy of frenzied mummery at the funeral of the United States of America. Either we wake up and shake our heads and recognize this or we perish. Probably we perish.
Kamala shows signs of being a new Margaret Thatcher -- not in policy, but in gravitas, maturity, deportment, and force of character. Hope?
Show me a man in America -- any male public figure today -- who can match the force of character in that stare and statement. Maybe she's the only remaining adult in the room of the republic. No crap Kamala?
The ones that come to mind do all seem to be women. Nancy Pelosi. Spanberger. Big Gretsch. Klobuchar.
I disagree that JVL thinks she should do that. I think he's saying she handled the situation well. I think he's thinking that he wishes she would've articulated her policies, but knows, as a practical matter, that the rally wasn't really the place to do that. She needs to do that on the debate stage or in an interview with a journalist and/or interviewer.
The author acts like she’s she supposed to stop the momentum and give a detailed response.

She did the absolute right thing. Plus a hard stare down when he/they wouldn’t stop. No insults, no disrespect.
oh man, as a former child, that cold eyed stare made my blood run cold.
My mother perfected that look.
That look was the warning. Once she invites you to the ladies room, you know you are in for it.

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
Eh, I think Ben was just making a distinction between his personal interest and how successful campaigns actually work. I didn’t take it negatively.

Yes, and of course that would be very unhelpful in this context.
