'Outstanding!' Veteran Joni Ernst's response to protesters is a winner

The protester chant against Ernst goes on for 3+ minutes before frat bros got together and started chanting "Joni!Joni!"

At a rally at an Iowa State fraternity Monday night, Senate candidate Joni Ernst shut down a group of protesters shouting about her “dirty money” with a reminder that she’s faced much tougher opposition than a group of hecklers.

Joni Ernst calms down the crowd after the protest: "Don't worry folks I've seen worse. But it was in Iraq."

Protesters at @joniernst event screaming at her about "dirty money". Her response was something like: I've seen much worse, been to war.

.@joniernst uses the protest to tie into her military service: "What the military taught me is to stay calm in these situations."
