True, but irrelevant.
JOHN GLENN WAS MY SENATOR DURING THE 1980s.
I judged his political positions, supporting abortion and socialism, opposing strategic defense and ballistic missile modernization, in the 1980s by the standards of the 1980s. The 1980s are not something I read about in a history book or saw in a youtube video. I lived the 1980s. In Ohio. Which John Glenn misrepresented in the United States Senate. I voted against him. Twice. It is of no import to speculate as to how he would vote in the Senate today. How he conducted himself in the Senate in the 1980s and 1990s is a matter of public record. It happened. We have to deal with reality. His Senate voting record, in all its horror, is as much a part of his legacy as his heroic conduct in the Marine Corps and NASA. Ignore them both, or deal with them both.
Your opinion and you’re entitled to it.
