She’s been described as one of the most recognizable but least understood figures in US politics. And, like Marmite, it seems Americans either really like her or really (really) hate her. She’s been called ‘a phony’ and ‘an ageing hoofer’, and been the butt of unfiltered sexist rhetoric (one TV commentator opined that, when Hillary spoke, all you heard was her nagging: ‘Take out the garbage’).
