George Patton “Pat” Waters, General Patton's Grandson, Endorses Marco Rubio For President
Today, George Patton “Pat” Waters, the grandson of General George S. Patton, endorsed Marco Rubio for President. He served in the United States Navy from 1965-1970 and was a CIC Officer aboard the USS BRAINE, DD 630.
In endorsing Marco, Patton issued the following statement:
"Today I am announcing my endorsement of Marco Rubio for president.
"Donald Trump says we need to 'bring back Patton,' but I can say with certainty: Mr. Trump, you are no Patton. It's true that my grandfather was known for his controversial statements and aggressive leadership, but he was also known for his honor and toil for a righteous cause. He put his men and mission above himself every time.
"Donald Trump is driven only by his own self-interest. He has no north star on matters of foreign policy. He is neutral when it comes to Israel, America's greatest ally, and friendly toward Vladimir Putin. Meanwhile, Marco Rubio is tough, honorable, and experienced. His judgement is sound and his plans to keep America safe will work.
"My grandfather was a fighter, and he would have been proud of Marco Rubio’s fight against Donald Trump. When Marco gets hit, he hits back. My grandfather once said, 'We got through on good old American guts.' That will be the story of Marco Rubio after he wins here in Florida. I am proud to support him as he makes a stand for America's future."
