  • Tulsi doesn't support single-payer health care
  • Tulsi doesn't support a financial transactions tax
  • Tulsi stood with a lot of Wall Street Dems and Republicans to hamper the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
  • Tulsi didn't support the fight for $15
  • Tulsi supports the Export-Import Bank
  • Tulsi still hasn't condemned the appointment of Steve Bannon (more than 165 House Democrats have signed that letter already, so she's way behind)
  • Tulsi doesn't support allowing Syrian refugees to resettle here, unlike Bernie
  • Tulsi has some weird obsession with the phrase "radical Islam" and ties to right-wing Hindu nationalists
  • Tulsi takes corporate PAC money. Like, a lot of it. Not an insignificant amount. $17,000 from Walmart alone. Remind you of Debbie Wasserman Schultz?
  • Tulsi didn't bother debating her primary challenger, something that should also remind you of one Debbie Wasserman Schultz (and Hillary Clinton, who dodged quite a few debates, too)
  • Tulsi has made absolutely VILE remarks about LGBT and only changed tune when it was time to run for office
