You seem to have misinterpreted what I was saying.

"we need the US nuclear umbrella , so what does the US do if China drops a nuke on Adelaide , my bet is bugger-all , they are hardly going to retaliate and put their own cities at risk."
The point I am making, is that alignment with the US to take advantage of its nuclear umbrella is counterproductive. The US will only retaliate if it is in the US's interests.
Hence , the ''umbrella '' is basically worthless , so pointless paying for it by being the US's catspaw.

I am perfectly willing to accept the notion that the US has at least 74 million ignorant people not half as bright as me.
Clearly you find comfort in large numbers, good for you . MAGA yippee.
