How about Eric Holder?

Do you think banks are going to happily accept meaningful regulations to prevent another economic collapse? Or the healthcare industry will accept meaningful regulation that lowers medical expenses? Or the rich will accept laws that empower unions and reduce income inequality? They will all fight tooth and nail against these things.

Do you think white nationalists will happily accept a society where non-whites, women and immigrants are treated as equals and treated with dignity?

Sometimes life is zero sum, and for one person to win another person has to lose. Sometimes doing the right thing means bad people get angry (ask someone who fought for civil rights in the 1960s about that, about whether the white nationalists in the south happily accepted the civil rights movement without complaint). Welcome to the real world.

No, I don’t think it speaks volumes, because I don’t understand what your point is (other than you don’t like Holder). What someone does after an office doesn’t really say anything concrete about how they approached the job while in office.

For example, was General Mattis just an incompetent military officer too involved in politics because after he retired he decided to hitch his wagon to a terrible horse? I don’t think so.

So you’ll have to actually state what Holder did on the job that makes him so much more political than other AGs. Vague statements like “but but but his ambitions!” or “but but but he didn’t investigate his boss for allowing with an intern!” are not sufficient.
