One protestor asked Hillary if anyone has told her “that you are super predator”.

Another person yelled, “Bill Clinton, you’re a genocide supporter. F*** you, you piece of s**t.”

Even as the criticism continued, Hillary seemed unperturbed, extending a hand to wave and smiling at the crowd.

After the couple got into their car, the protestors continued to bash them for atrocities in Palestine, saying that “You’re literally helping facilitate the genocide of Palestinians.”

A female protestor even grilled Hillary over the killing of women in Gaza.

“F***ing piece of s**t Hillary! Over 34,000 people are dead, Hillary. Call yourself a feminist? Women are dying in Gaza.”

Accusing “Hillary Diane Rodham Clinton” of hiding in the back of her car, the protestors said: “Stop holding fundraisers for genocide you f***ing coward.”

The demonstrators went on to ask “how many people have died at your hands?”, while one added, “I hope their screams haunt you every night.”
