Meh.

The fact that AUKUS is being reviewed is pretty meaningless. It should be reviewed by any incoming administration.

We’re an attractive dance partner for the US:

we’re right where the US wants to have nuclear sub facilities

we’re a stable US partner over many decades

Trump needs friends who are not dictators

  America first, American subs.
  
  US has proven they are not a reliable dance partner as they shrink from the world stage.
