Former President Barack Obama now implies that outrage over the devastating 2012 attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, was fueled by “wild conspiracy theories.”
Obama, hitting the campaign trail on behalf of Democrats, made the remarks while speaking at the University of Illinois.
Ryan Saavedra, at the Daily Wire, explains:
“But over the past few decades, the politics of division and resentment and paranoia has unfortunately found a home in the Republican party,” Obama said.
Obama then attacked Republican members of Congress, accusing them of embracing “wild conspiracy theories like those surrounding Benghazi.”
WATCH:
Shortly after Obama made his remarks, Kris Paronto, a former Army Ranger who was a private security contractor working for the CIA at the CIA annex in Benghazi, slammed Obama.
