The embassy wouldn't look as friendly if there were armed guards stationed there. What is more important, protecting our embassy staff, or not wanting to take a chance of possibly offending someone? I would rather vote for a guy who says some stupid stuff, than for a person who refuses to protect our embassy.

First, just as a point of fact, Benghazi was not an embassy. It was a U.S. consulate office. Typically, U.S. Consulate offices do not have "armed guards." They are in place to help facilitate trade and "citizen to citizen" relations.
Second, what you cite as possible reasons for "denial" of protection for the CONSULATE is based on an OPINION piece. Not fact.
Finally, regarding Trump saying "stupid stuff." Have you ever heard of the saying, "Loose lips sink ships?" He is not running for secondary school president ("Vote for Pedro.") What he says could lead to world war. He needs to GROW UP, and so do his followers.
