Ted Nugent: I ‘stand by’ saying Hillary Clinton should be hanged for treason

Published June 1, 2017 4:27pm ET



Rocker and one-time White House guest Ted Nugent said Thursday he stands by his 2016 comment that Hillary Clinton should be tried and hanged for treason for her response to the 2012 terror attacks in Benghazi.

“I’ve never threatened to hang anybody. I’ve never suggested anybody get hung, except the one time after Benghazi, I recommended that Hillary Clinton be charged, arrested, tried and hung,” Nugent said in an interview Wednesday with conservative radio host Ben Ferguson. “What she did as secretary of state was certainly treasonous, and I stand by that.”
