Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was slammed on social media Monday after she dismissed President Trump’s efforts to combat crime in Washington, D.C. as "unhinged" with other top Democrats, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, receiving similar pushback.
"As you listen to an unhinged Trump try to justify deploying the National Guard in DC, here's reality," Clinton posted on X on Monday, along with a DOJ press release from early January of this year, in conjunction with Trump’s press conference announcing the federalization of the nation’s capital to combat crime. "Violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low."
Clinton’s post immediately drew pushback from conservatives on social media, including from inside the White House, with many making the case that crime in Washington, D.C. has gotten out of control.
"On top of being a big-time loser, you're also a massive liar," White House deputy press secretary Abigail Jackson posted on X along with an article headline about a D.C. police commander being suspended for allegedly altering crime data.
"If Hillary Clinton thinks DC is safe, she should go move to Anacostia or Navy Yard," conservative communicator Steve Guest posted on X.
Jeffries posted a similar reaction to Clinton on social media saying, "Violent crime in Washington, D.C. is at a thirty-year low. Donald Trump has no basis to take over the local police department. And zero credibility on the issue of law and order. Get lost."
Conservatives on social media ripped Jeffries as well.

Let her walk one mile in a risky area of DC after dark without her security detail. Just by herself. Old white woman alone. Bet she changes her mind real fast about how safe DC is at that point.
“ Violent crime in DC is at a 30-year low.”
So what, Hill?
As usual, Democrats lie by using relative terms.
Hey Hill! We are not as stupid as you and your cult members!
👍🏻👍🏻
Hillary not being in DC all the time reduces the crime rates dramatically.
I haven’t been to DC in many decades. But when I was there I wandered into a burger king slightly off the beaten track and was the only white person there. It was very crowded and it seemed half the people there were giving me dirty hateful looks like what is this white guy doing here. I’ve lived in many different cities and DC seemed to be the most racist (against whites) city of all by a wide margin.
So now DC is safe and happy and secure!
SMH
Many years ago while on a trip to Anacostia, stopped for lunch at neighborhood McDonalds….first time in my sheltered military life I ever saw armed guards at a McDonalds
Yeah these elites that all travel with secret service or other taxpayer-funded security details need to STFU
And….the MEdia rankly shows its incompetence and bias by letting these people parrot the party line about a drop in crime…when a top DC Commander was just fired in May for fudging reports to make it look like crime rates were down
Hey Hildabeast, tell that to Seth Rich.
Lie, lie, lie and lie some more.
Libs can never tell the truth about anything.
WHEN ALL INCIDENTS ARE NOT REPORTED OR OUT TO PAPER OR ENTERED INTO THE COMPUTERS——CRIME LOOKS NON-EXISTENT.
THE SAME KIND OF THOUGHT== “I CANNOT BE OUT OF MONEY -—I STILL HAVE CHECKS LEFT”
So the crime rate in DC is acceptable?
The number of people assaulted, robbed or killed is just fine?
Democrats have shown they are comfortable with crime as long as an “oppressed” minority does it.
ASSAULT CASES THAT DID NOT USE A WEAPON——NOT REPORTED
“”Let her walk one mile in a risky area of DC after dark without her security detail. Just by herself. Old white woman alone. Bet she changes her mind real fast about how safe DC is at that point.””
She’s not going to change what subs as her mind. She’s just lying.... as usual. It’s what she and her ilk always do. And like the other leftist elites, that live behind gated walls with 24/7 security... she doesn’t give a rat’s rip what danger, expenses and struggles that the common people (average Americans) have to go through in their daily lives, thanks to the policies of her and her leftist cohorts.
Go stand in front of a crowd of the real black people who have to live in those neighborhoods, and tell them that their safety isn’t important. Go ahead, Hildawitch. Tell them their Lives Don’t Matter. And don’t bring yourself ur bodyguards with you. Walk through those neighborhoods with those people who live there.
I Double-Dog Dare you.
Hillary, the woman who flunked the DC bar exam and who has f’ed up just about everything she’s ever been involved in.
30 year low...But Homicides are 5 times what they are in NYC.
‘splain that.
I met her and Bill Clinton once. Bill was a used car salesman and Hillary was one of those people who think they are smart because nobody has had the gall to tell them they are a moron.
The nuttiest politician I ever met was John McCain. He obviously had some kind of neurological issue. If he thought something was true it was true if he thought it was. He and Hillary seemed a lot alike to me. Both very very full of themselves and acted like they were royalty as if you should kiss their ring. The GOOD thing about John McCain at the time that was (some years back) was his wife - smoking hot! I tried to put a Laz move on her but they had her very well guarded:)
In 2003 I drove North thru DC on U.S. route 1, because I got lost coming from Arlington. I figured, “It’s Hwy 1, how bad can it be?” It was bad. I went thru one of the bad sections North of the capitol mall. I got a lot of intense stares whenever I had to stop at a light.
