Rep. Lynn Westmoreland (R-GA), a member of the House Select Committee On Benghazi, said Hillary Clinton laid “a trap” for the committee by making her Oct. 22 appearance go “as long as possible,” BuzzFeed News reports.
Said Westmoreland: “As you know, some of you may have watched the marathon Hillary Clinton fiasco, and I say that because Trey Gowdy, the chairman of the committee, wanted to interview her in private, and she said, ‘No, I want to do this in public.’ Now to me, that was us stepping in a trap because we should have known that she was going to go on and just stall, debate, filibuster, on these answers to make it go as long as possible, so we would look cruel.”
