I would like to point out that Democrats consistently vote to increase the military budget, even when Trump is president. The most recent defense authorization act received 115 yes votes from Democrats to 94 no votes. On domestic issues you can make the argument that Democrats are a lesser evil, but when it comes to the empire the evil is bipartisan.
The main difference between Republicans and Democrats on foreign policy is that Democrats are better at it.
That’s not good. Iran was in really bad shape before the war started, another few years of the maximum pressure sanctions campaign and they’d eventually be dealing with enough civil unrest that justifying a “humanitarian intervention” would be possible. Instead of the US and Israel attacking on their own, NATO would have helped topple the government like they did in Libya.
Instead we got Republicans, who fumbled this so hard that Iran is winning and on the cusp of being a regional hegemon. The US empire is spiraling towards collapse at this rate and I am 100% here for it.
