Marion Gordon "Pat" Robertson (March 22, 1930 – June 8, 2023) was an American evangelist and host of the 700 Club, a Christian news and talk show on television. He ran for President in 1988 against George H.W. Bush, but did not win the primaries. He said several times that natural disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina and the 2010 Haiti earthquake, were punishments from God.[1][2]
Robertson died at his home in Virginia Beach, Virginia on June 8, 2023 at the age of 93.[3][4]
