That's the point I was making. I doubt Patton was saying he would have joined forces with Hitler. But, he said we shouldn't have stopped with Germany but should've kept going into Russia to stop the communists.
That doesn't necessarily mean he wanted to fight WITH Hitler, but it does mean either he didn't see the Germans as an enemy at all, or at least not much of an enemy compared to the communists.
Some of his statements indicate he decided the Germans were good people, which to me means he thought he was tricked into fighting them.

Well, he said, "We fought the wrong enemy."
