Why Do So Many People Dislike Hillary?

The Inquiry

Available for over a year

Hillary Clinton is the odds-on favourite to be the next president of the USA. But polls show more and more Americans view her unfavourably. In fact, the public's hostility towards her is record-breaking. Only Donald Trump elicits greater antipathy. That’s perhaps less surprising. He is a political outsider, and a divisive figure. But why does Hillary Clinton - a mainstream, centrist politician - provoke such strong, negative feelings? Presenter: Helena Merriman (Image: Montage of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton with a sign 'Hillary You Liar')
