Feinstein: Hillary Hasn’t Had News Conferences Because Questions Are Always About Emails and Benghazi

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “Situation Room,” Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) stated that she “can’t answer” why Democratic presidential nominee former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton doesn’t have more press conferences, “except the questions that come up are always the same questions. It’s emails, and it’s Benghazi.”

Feinstein said, “I don’t think she’s afraid to have a news conference. I think there is no woman on earth that gets more press than Hillary Clinton does, and I’ve watched her day after day at event after event. I can’t answer why there aren’t more news conferences, except the questions that come up are always the same questions. It’s emails, and it’s Benghazi. Look, when I was chairman of the intelligence committee, both sides on our committee did a year-and-a-half investigative study into Benghazi. We published a classified and an unclassified report, and there was no culpability found. And yet, it goes on and on and on. And I think that’s part of the problem.”
