She showed documented child rape material in a closed meeting (I think it was to press?) to gain support for her online regulation/blocking efforts. It's when I learned of the term demagoge.

Between that, her work as a defense minister (costly contracts to contractors) and no improvements to the military, and what you said, I feel like at least I don't hear as much or as bad things of her as president. Which alone is a low bar of course.
