Roger Waters

Outspoken rock legend Roger Waters has voiced concern that Hillary Clinton is too hawkish, quipping that she might use nuclear weapons if elected president.

Waters, the former Pink Floyd member best known for the classic album “The Wall,” said he is supporting liberal insurgent Bernie Sanders as he challenges Clinton for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination. “I have an awful worry that she might become the first woman president (only) to drop a nuclear bomb on somebody,” Waters told Rolling Stone magazine in an interview released Monday.

“There is something scarily hawkish about her,” he said.

But he said that Clinton was a better choice than Republican contenders “by a long, long way.”

Waters, who recently released a new film version of “The Wall,” lives in New York but is a British national and cannot vote in the US.
