She has triggered an avalanche of misogyny in a certain section of the population, who are quite vocal with their dislike of her and her policies. And she would have been more unpopular with them had she delivered on her promise of a capital gains tax.
She went down in my books because she wouldn’t meet with the protestors, but I still think she is much better than any alternative politician.
