She may claim to be against "regime change wars", but sending refugees back to die has never stopped wars and none of her cheerleading for Assad has stopped him from gassing, torturing, imprisoning, and murdering his own citizens.

And before Tulsi's Defender tries to say "We need to talk to Dictators". Tulsi is a single congresswoman and has next to no power when it comes to making military decisions. She has no reason to dine with a Dictator and then continue to cheerlead for him.

If I were to vote in a presidential
