Biden should be held accountable for excesses of the Drug War which he supported, but Kamala Harris was Attorney General for California and as such it was her job to enforce the law. Kamala Harris did strictly enforce the law, but also provided many with options to avoid punishment by staying employed and not reoffending.

"it was her job" sure, but no one forced her into that job.

>such it was her job

"Sure, I might be against the imprisoning of the innocent NOW, but what if it were my job?"

Uh huh, because Republicans have a great track record when it comes to the war on drugs. We can whatabout all day

Most progressives are actually not too happy about these things but voting in a two party system is a compromise for most people, not a purity test..
