Perhaps I misspoke when I asked about questioning. I meant questioning her competence and her superiority to DJT. I never meant she's perfect, but if you look at her response to the truancy issue, I think you might reconsider that particular course of action. I agree that the fines were too large, but as she explained, and as I have reason to know, in addition to losing the vital opportunity for a better future that education provides, kids on the streets rather than in school often become victims of crimes. After Harris started that program, parents paid closer attention, fewer kids were truant and their chance to escape a less than optimal situation increased significantly. Some of their lives may have been saved as well.

Any person who takes on a big job will do things people won't like (see Hillary Clinton). That's the nature of big responsibility. But the bottom line is whether or not you think she'd put babies in cages and let them die. I do not.
