No, I’m not being blindly loyal. I’m understanding that it’s (frankly kinda idiotic) political posturing. It’s politics. It’s de rigueur.
And moreover, you’re taking the fact that the platform is highlighting the feckless inconsistency and ineptitude of the Trump administration and the guy himself as a “we can do better” statement, while I see it as much more of a “huh, thought you said you’d be ‘strong on defense’, but that didn’t pan out” - I.e., largely pointing out hypocrisy, as well as the fact that he manifestly does not give a shit about the welfare and health of people in the military.

This is the official party platform of the democratic party. This is where they write and then vote on what their party plans to do, not some media piece to dunk on Trump. This is about what they want to do once they’re in office. It’s their action plan, it’s not meant to rally voters by comparing their candidate to Trump.
Read the paragraphs before that, the section that starts with
Through aggressive diplomacy backed by U.S. military power, the Administration has worked
alongside our allies and partners to deter and defend against Iran and its terrorist
surrogates.
They’re proudly displaying their aid in genocide and how they are bombing the middle east and promising more. It’s also telling that they are constantly comparing Bidens presidency to Trumps. They absolute plan to stay the course they just switched out the front.
Democrats will call off the Trump Administration’s race to war with Iran and prioritize nuclear
diplomacy, de-escalation, and regional dialogue. Democrats believe the United States should not
impose regime change on other countries and reject that as the goal of U.S. policy toward Iran.
We believe the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) remains the best means to
verifiably cut off all of Iran’s pathways to a nuclear bomb. The Trump Administration’s
unilateral withdrawal from the JCPOA isolated us from our allies and opened the door for Iran to
resume its march toward a nuclear weapons capacity that the JCPOA had stopped. That’s why
returning to mutual compliance with the agreement is so urgent. The nuclear deal was always
meant to be the beginning, not the end, of our diplomacy with Iran. Democrats support a
comprehensive diplomatic effort to extend constraints on Iran’s nuclear program and address
Iran’s other threatening activities, including its regional aggression, ballistic missile program,
and domestic repression
This is a clear shift in rhetoric towards Neocon Warhawk.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

Democrats, Republicans, it’s all good as long as everyone is pulling in the same direction: transferring wealth from natural, human, and government resources into corporate ownership.
Evolutionary pressures are inevitably going to turn them to using the two most effective but distinct strategies for exploiting and controlling voters that can exist. As soon as techniques more effective than, “win by allowing the voters to educate themselves and vote their conscience,” were developed, mass democracy was fucked.

This is exactly what Trump fans say when you give them something he said that they disagree with or point out his playing of both sides.

So…move right on the military and become a warhawk…to show that Trump isn’t actually hawkish enough on the military so it didn’t work for him?..love it./s
refuse to play politics with our security. Here is my pledge to you: As President, I will bring back the bipartisan border security bill that he killed. And I will sign it into law. (Immigration as a national security issue)
ensure America always has the strongest, most lethal fighting force in the world. (More military, more deadly!)
will never hesitate to take whatever action is necessary to defend our forces and our interests against Iran and Iran-backed terrorists. (Make them fear us!)
I will always stand up for Israel’s right to defend itself and I will always ensure Israel has the ability to defend itself. Because the people of Israel must never again face the horror that the terrorist organization Hamas caused on October 7th. (Support Israel and justify the ongoing genocide!)
The Democratic party is just evil at this point, people just don’t want to lose hope and the system has been designed to convince people the Dems are the only hope.

Compare it with their 2020 platform:

I guess they are too close to see it.
And that’s why the Democrats just might be more dangerous than the Republicans.
And that is absolute nonsense.

Dems have always been more dangerous, they hide among the marginalized as allies until they are ready to strike
