I sent messages to President Pena and Prime Minister Turnbull this morning.

Both have websites from which one can send comments. In both cases, I expressed my embarrassment at the unacceptable way they were treated by the current resident of the White House. I stated that millions of Americans share my outrage at the president's behavior.

Might not be a bad idea to have more such messages sent to these distinguished heads of state.

Just saying.

For PM Turnbull: https://www.pm.gov.au/contact-your-pm

For President Pena: http://en.presidencia.gob.mx/contacto/ (It's a bit tricky - you're required to enter your address, and the drop menu to indicate your state only lists Mexican states, even after listing "Estados Unidos" as your country. I selected Chiapas simply because I've spent more time there than in other Mexican states, and added a comment at the end that I know the upper midwest of the US is not in Chiapas.)

(Also - if you haven't heard, anagrams for "Donald Trump" include "Lord Dampnut" and "Don Turdpalm." To me, he's Lord Dampnut from now on.)

I sent messages to both offering apologies

I also asked for their help in ridding us of this illegitimate president.
I suggested that if they are in possession of foreign intelligence about him as a Russian agent, please release it.

I also suggested that they reach out to Congress regarding impeachment or the 25th Amendment.

I wouldn't be surprised if Lord Dampnut isn't invited to the next G12 summit.

@realDonaldTrump sent apologies to Pres Pena and PM Turnbull for rude treatment by Trump. An Americans embarrassed by Trump.

Let Traitor Trump the Terrible know. Not that he cares what others think.

And lives outside Sydney said her PM is a self righteous twat and him and Trump deserve each other.

She and I over the years have talked politics, since they have a law that everyone has to vote and its on Saturday they get 95% voting and most of the country is at least involved in talking about it.

Said she doesn't like her choices either.

but to have our president behave like a petulant toddler to the head of state of a staunch ally embarrasses all Americans.
