Presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump launched the first in a series of attacks against rival Hillary Clinton Thursday, accusing the former secretary of state of lying to the families of those killed in an attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya.
Trump's campaign, in a minute-long ad posted on its new "LyingCrookedHillary.com" website, contended that Clinton was aware that the Benghazi incident was a terrorist attack within hours, but "lied anyways," suggesting it was due to a YouTube video.
"She stood in front of the flag-draped coffins of four Americans that died serving their country and peddled the lie that the video was to blame both to the victims' families and the American public," the campaign posted on the website.
The video includes clips in which Clinton stated that American embassies saw violence over "an awful Internet video," a well as an interview in which Patricia Smith, the mother of victim Sean Smith, states, "she lied to me, she told me it was the fault of the video."
The ad is the first in a series of 10 "Legendary Lies" Trump's campaign said it will announce.
