HI
I want to know the meaning of "brash" in below phrase in The Economist.
TO CRITICS of Mahinda Rajapaksa, local-council elections that were held in Sri Lanka on February 10th felt like a horror film, as the controversial ex-president rose from his silk-lined political coffin to declare victory. And what a victory it was for Mr Rajapaksa, a brash populist whose exit in 2015 after ten bloodstained and corruption-tainted years in power was widely heralded as a bright new dawn for the civil-war-battered island republic.
Link is here.
<In Sri Lanka, local elections have rattled the government>
Hope some kind person will kindly explain to me by using some para-phrase explanation.
