Why couldn’t we show the class that Trump did in speaking of John Glenn, instead of making ugly remarks about him that seem more like they belong on DU rather than FR?
Why not just remember him as an iconic hero of the space age
and a distinguished fighter pilot in both World War II and Korea, with five Distinguished Flying Crosses and eighteen clusters- a man who put his life on the line for America.
This is the way John should be remembered= whatever his failings as a U.S senator.
"failings"?, give me a F'ing break.
How easily some discount the high treason committed by John Glenn.
In the end, Glenn was instrumental in covering up the illegal transfer of missile tech to China. Saying that we should forget that because of his military/NASA record is like saying we should forget Benedict Arnold's treason because he was the hero of Saratoga.
Glenn was a traitor, get used to it.
