What do Democrats need to do to regain national security?

People at work are cursing at me, telling me that the Democratic Party is sinking the United States on defense. The GOP is running away with the National Security card. What do Democrats need to do to make the nation know that they are the party of a good national security?

No one made this country less safe than GWB and Shooter. End of story. This pile of manure we are looking at is fallout from an illegal, immoral invasion!

Now they are trying to acquire nuclear weapons, so now we must drain the swamp of ISIS.
