Not trying to put words in your mouth but you appeared to be saying that it was propaganda that made people dislike Hillary.

Decades of propaganda and abuse.

Having spent my entire life with Hillary in the political spectrum since Bill in the primaries there are plenty of things I dislike about her positions over the years.

I would take her in a New York minute before Trump but that is a super low bar.
