    Relevant context (probably): Buzz Aldrin seems to be/have been a bit of a dick.

      The stories I heard, he was mostly upset people thought the moon landing was faked.

        He endorsed Trumps second term, saying "we need a proven, serious, tested leader for president ".

        So he’s either lost his intelligence with age, gained racism, or was always a dick.

          That’s so weird, because Trump essentially cut funding to NASA and now the Artemis Program is completely in jeopardy. But even have to be cancelled altogether.

          Buzz Aldrin voted for that.

          Aldrin is a staunch Republican. He was going to vote GOP no matter what. To that end, he’d say anything to get them into the White House.

          That said, he might have truly believed that Biden (who hadn’t yet stepped down) wasn’t any of those things.

          C3 Corvette Stingray is the most beautiful production sports car ever sold. You can’t change my mind

              That’s beautiful for sure, but it’s not a stingray
