The president of the United States let the consulate in Libya become a death trap

Senator Lindsey Graham has been a vocal critic of the Obama administration's handling of the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya in 2012. Graham has repeatedly accused President Obama of failing to adequately protect American diplomats in Libya, allowing the consulate to become a "death trap" for those inside.

Graham's criticism of the administration's response to the Benghazi attack has been relentless. He has accused the president of failing to take the threat of terrorism seriously and of not doing enough to ensure the safety of American personnel in Libya. Graham has also criticized the administration for initially blaming the attack on a spontaneous protest over an anti-Islam video, rather than acknowledging it as a premeditated terrorist attack.
