The man is a "national joke" because he is an adjudicated rapist, a liar and a train wreck.
Nobody else but him is to blame for that.

Australia’s peak Jewish group condemns Netanyahu’s ‘clumsy’ attack on Albanese and calls for end to ‘spat’
Executive Council of Australian Jewry says Australian and Israeli governments should use ‘diplomacy rather than public posturing’
Australia’s peak Jewish group has lambasted Benjamin Netanyahu’s attack on Anthony Albanese as “inflammatory and provocative”, adding that the “clumsy intervention” showed a “woeful lack of understanding of social and political conditions in Australia” – notwithstanding what the group describes as “unseemly” conduct from Australia’s leader.
