I hope the Aussies understand that Chump doesn't represent all of us. He doesn't even represent the majority of us. When Chump is finally gone and the idiot MAGAs are defeated, we will quickly make amends with our friends in NATO and the rest of the "Free World" including Australia.

I'm no longer on Facebook, or I would post a friendly answer to this guy.
