Hillary stating that she had lost more sleep than all of Committee combined (Sounds kind of Trumpish doesn't it) over the loss of her "good friend" Chris Stevens; even though she called him Chris Smith in initial correspondence.
While initially maintaining is was due to a video she told the PM of Egypt (and her family) an entire different story
Her relationship with Sidney Blumenthal
Said Chris Stevens "felt comfortable" although he continually asked for more security. Of course she blamed the lack of security
She was "transparent" in her email traffic
Her explanation of the deaths to the families of the deceased. Well this is according to them. Of course when challenged with somebody's lying she said it wasn't her, so it must have been the families of the victims amitight?
There's much, much more, but this thread is about Trump
I am probably more understanding of Clinton's action than most conservatives, but to question if anyone lied about what happened is either extreme nativity or willful ignorance. 

The initial Republican claim was that Democrats were lying to cover up a terror attack. 7 Congressional committees were unable to establish that.  The "lies" you are referring to are just spun out of later hearings.

In the span of 48 hours, Obama and Clinton get different reports. It is a week before they get the actual video of the attack. In the meantime, they say one thing to a foreign diplomat, another to people in-house, perhaps another to families.  None of the "lies" attributed to Clinton are inconsistent with this situation.  You don't necessarily tell a foreign diplomat the same thing you tell a family member, and what you say to anyone may be subject to incoming information.

The Republican method of parsing out "lies" was to compare something said to an Egyptian Diplomat on one day something said to the press on another.  

The Benghazi investigations were, in the history of the US, the finest example of the "gotcha" ethic you were complaining about early. As Rep. McCArthy revealed, the purpose of the faux scandal was to bring down Hillary's numbers.
