Bobby Knight: No Benghazi on Trump's watch
CNN ^ | Wed May 4, 2016 | Julia Manchester

(CNN) — Legendary Indiana basketball coach Bobby Knight, a Donald Trump supporter, said Wednesday he was not concerned about the businessman's rhetoric or the Republican Party unifying behind him.

Asked by CNN's John Berman about Trump's controversial remarks and how they might affect him as the nominee, Knight dismissed the criticism.

"That doesn't really mean anything to me right now," Knight said on "New Day," "because we're talking about a guy that I think can handle things far better than anything we've had recently."

He added, "I'll tell you one thing about Donald Trump: There will never be a Benghazi in a Donald Trump administration."

Trump should pick Bobby to straighten out the VA mess and make sure to treat vets before they commit suicide.

Knight may not be a doctor but his is a brilliant mind, and he is a true patriot, and loves the military. He would banish the corruption and make sure the VA spends the money wisely.

Vets would have their best friend watching their back and the rest of us would no that nobody will work harder for Vets than Bobby would. He will bring in experts to help him, but its all about his great attitude, and how he motivates people.

Coach Knight coached at West Point before he went to Indiana.

In addition to having a brilliant mind, Coach Knight is an avid student of history. I would give him much higher marks in knowledge of foreign policy than most people. Certainly more than Lady Gaga or Kim Kardashian.

Bobby was YUUUGE in Indiana. As an analogy, he helped Trump win the Big 10 conference tourney.

Now it’s on the the NCAA championships. Something The General knows a few things about.

We all know that Obama and Hillary Clinton gave a STAND DOWN order regarding Benghazi. Such orders can only come down from the top! To me that is an impeachable offense allowing our people to die when we had sufficient time to effect a rescue. Something (gun running I suspect) is not being told the public and is being covered up.
