Except it wasn't. Her job was to address the root causes of out-migration from the Central Triangle. Not to secure the border, not to set border policy, not to oversee Customs and Border Patrol, and not to deal with any of the issues resulting from border crossings. At no point was she tasked with reviewing the specific aspects of border security that the GOP complains about.
That's what her campaign is saying, but that's not what she's going to be tagged with. She can't hide from Biden's hideous record on the border and pretend to be a bystander; she owns it - all of it.
But "law and order" isn't just about the border. It's also about crime. That was the triad that Trump was going to use against Biden - inflation, border, crime. Harris won't be running away from her time as a prosecutor - she'll be wielding it proudly as a shield against the "soft on crime"/"defund the police" attacks. Again, those attacks will leave a mark, but she's got countermeasures to deploy that Biden did not.
That won't work. Her record as a prosecutor is sketchy at best and literally no one is going to believe that she'll be "tough on crime" in 2025 (although democrats all over the country are now running as Law And Order Candidates - they sounds like Reaganites on this issue).
