Harris pokes fun at MAGA hecklers at Wisconsin rally, tells them to go to 'smaller one down the street'
LA CROSSE, WISCONSIN: Vice President Kamala Harris roasted the MAGA hecklers who crashed her rally in Wisconsin, quipping they were perhaps meant to be at "the smaller one down the street."
The Harris-Walz campaign often joked that the rallies of former president Donald Trump did not manage to attract a larger crowd besides being "weird," and the ones attending the event would leave while the real estate mogul was talking.
The vice president's latest clapback took place while she was addressing supporters in La Crosse, Wisconsin, on Thursday, October 17, as per The Mirror US. The hecklers interrupted as Harris slammed Trump for appointing three conservative justices to the Supreme Court, which led to the upending of Roe v Wade.

Kamala Harris says MAGA hecklers were at the 'wrong rally'
In the middle of her Trump bashing, Kamala Harris noticed a group of hecklers started shouting. The VP quickly stopped her speech and instead smiled and waved at the MAGA supporters.
"Oh, you guys are at the wrong rally," she said, prompting the crowd to erupt into loud cheers.
"I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street," she added, pointing her fingers to the back of the stage. "Come on," Harris nudged the hecklers and laughed along with the raucous crowd.
It remains unclear whether the hecklers stayed in the arena or were sent out; however, the VP continued with her speech.
Trump's obsession with the crowd size was a topic of mockery among Democrats. For instance, former president Barack Obama poked fun at his successor's fixation during his Democratic National Convention speech.
"It has been a constant stream of gripes and grievances that's actually been getting worse now that he’s afraid of losing to Kamala," the 44th president said in August.
"There's the childish nicknames, the crazy conspiracy theories, this weird obsession with crowd sizes," he added, making a hand gesture to ridicule the crowd size.
