In an epic social media beatdown, failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton faced harsh criticism for referring to the violent anti-ICE riots in Los Angeles as “peaceful demonstrations,” accusing Trump of deploying the National Guard to sow chaos.
For context, since June 7, 2025, violent anti-ICE riots have rocked Los Angeles, plunging the city into mass lawlessness reminiscent of the 2020 riots. Democrats have cynically used the riots as a political prop in their quest to halt Trump’s America First agenda.
This was demonstrated when Clinton took to Twitter on June 9, 2025, to criticize President Trump. The Democrat said, “California Governor Newsom didn’t request the National Guard be deployed to his state following peaceful demonstrations.”
Continuing her meltdown, Clinton whined, “Trump sent them anyway. It’s the first time in 60 years a president has made that choice. Trump’s goal isn’t to keep Californians safe. His goal is to cause chaos, because chaos is good for Trump.”
Noting that she had turned off comments, prominent conservative influencer Libs of TikTok quoted the post with a hilarious take-down. She explained, “Comments off lol. She can’t handle the ratio. This is what Hillary Clinton calls ‘peaceful demonstrations.'”
In the comments under this post, conservatives were enraged by the hypocrisy. One user noted, “I don’t understand why she even keeps that account open. If she doesn’t want to engage with the community, she could just as easily issue these opinions on her website.”
Angered, one comment read, “She ALWAYS has comments off. She knows. I still wonder, what does an anti-peaceful protest look like to democrats? This reminds me of the border issue during Biden’s administration – ‘the border is closed’ yet EVERYONE could see videos of illegals flooding across.”

Continuing, the same user noted, “‘Peaceful protests’ yet people throwing cinder blocks at officer’s heads, burning cars, etc. Do the dems think people don’t have brains or vision? So hard to understand their logic here. They would actually gain some credibility if they would just admit this is ridiculous and needs to be controlled ASAP.”
Bringing in a historic example, one reply stated, “The South didn’t ask for the Feds help when they seemed unable to protect Black’s voting rights, so they went in anyway and to this day still have influence over some states. If CA is unable/unwilling to protect its own people and enforce the laws, I see no reason why the Feds shouldn’t “help” in this case, too.”
Slamming Clinton’s previous foray into politics, a commentator remembered, “That’s actually funny. One thing I specifically remember about Sec Clinton was an interview Svenjas during the first Trump administration. Her words were something like I don’t want to run again, but I still want to be President. That sounded undemocratic to me.”
Tying these remarks to the broader DNC strategy, a reply noted, “Because the Democrats are going according to plan and are peaceful in their mind to destroy the very fabric of the American way of life. To move from freedom to control and dominate. A government state Control explicitly by those at the top, that’s their dream and end goal.”
