Bobbi notes that Charles Lindbergh, a dude who enjoyed a level of celebrity simply unimaginable in the modern era (seriously, there's not a rock star or tech tycoon that can touch it) managed to
junk his reputation with his activities during the run-up to U.S. involvement in World War Two, and it's never really recovered.
He was an aviation pioneer and inventor who had enormous public sympathy after the kidnapping and murder of his toddler son and managed to wreck all that and is mostly remembered as "That guy who flew across the Atlantic... and wasn't he kind of a Nazi apologist?"
