So the final Benghazi reports have been issued and like all the other reports before, nothing implicates Hillary Clinton. Yet certain Republicans and Donald Trump cannot accept the facts. He just continues repeating all the conspiracy theories.
He also asked that the media check with the families of the victims to see what they think of Hillary Clinton. Well Ambassador Stevens sister, Dr Anne Stevens, has chimed in (compliments of Rachel Maddow):
“It is clear, in hindsight, that the facility was not sufficiently protected by the State Department and the Defense Department. But what was the underlying cause? Perhaps if Congress had provided a budget to increase security for all missions around the world, then some of the requests for more security in Libya would have been granted. Certainly the State Department is under-budgeted.
“I do not blame Hillary Clinton or Leon Panetta. They were balancing security efforts at embassies and missions around the world. And their staffs were doing their best to provide what they could with the resources they had. The Benghazi Mission was understaffed. We know that now. But, again, Chris knew that. It wasn’t a secret to him. He decided to take the risk to go there. It is not something they did to him. It is something he took on himself.”
"She added, “With the many issues in the current election, to use that incident—and to use Chris’s death as a political point – is not appropriate…. I know he had a lot of respect for Secretary Clinton. He admired her ability to intensely read the issues and understand the whole picture.”"

Will Trump and his fellow conspiracy theorists now let Ambassador Stevens Rest in Peace? The cognitive dissonance of those who need to believe Hillary is at fault is on display...it must be tearing at their hate.
