From what I remember she was roundly criticized, like a bunch of others including Corbyn, who didn't campaign enough or were not vigorous in their views or vigorous in their counter arguments against Farage and Boris!! I have no doubt she had one eye on the future so kept her gunpowder dry so to speak!!
Brexit was so like the US election, the joke campaign, but the one with the "characters", was the one the media seemed to focus on most of the time!! Trump, Farage and Boris have always been a good interview for the media, and the media obliged by giving all 3 of them a nice front and center platform to spout their crap!! Certainly the media on both sides over here are taking some flak over their "promotion" of everything Trump, maybe the UK media need to do the same. Obviously in this era of social media and fake news, being an idiot or bigot or even racist is not enough to prevent you from winning!!!
