Tying national security issues to Trump gives Democrats new opportunities to go on offense: Trump's erraticism, the chaos he manufactures on the world stage, and the way he's muddied America's reputation in the world all resonate deeply with voters. 
Voters trust Democrats over Trump on national security issues—and they prefer Congressional Democrats over Republicans when asked to consider their vote in terms of a Republican who would support Trump's national security approach versus a Democrat who would oppose it.
All of this shows Trump's recklessness has eroded key elements of the traditional perception of a GOP advantage on national security.
Far from needing to avoid these issues, Democrats can gain the advantage by approaching the right national security issues in the right ways.
