It’s literally a prosecutor’s job to enforce the law. I’m sure she had many opinions on whether the laws were just or not…and that’s probably something that moved her to want to go into politics, where she can help shape the law. It’s fine if you object to someone having been a prosecutor but I don’t think you can accept that she was a prosecutor and then object to the fact that she…did her job.
That’s a bit of a cop out. Was she “just following orders”?
Anyone enforcing laws they don’t believe in is IMO a bigger ethical issue than agreeing with controversial laws.
People’s willingness to follow through on what the government decides should absolutely be a check and balance on government power IMO.
Edit: she’s still a far better choice than Trump and would have to have a lot more issues to change that, just to be clear.
