She has some criticisms for her past as an attorney, but I’m not sure why she’s so disliked now. What has she done to engender such distaste from the public?

Partly because of discrimination, partly because she lacks charisma. There are a substantial number of people that dislike her because she's a black woman and they have biases against both, sometimes without even knowing it. There are also some people on the left that dislike her because she's a moderate liberal that used to be a prosecutor. Honestly she's about standard as vice presidents come, so though I'm farther to the left than her I don't have any strong feelings on her.
