"Geez, Donald Trump Jr. is a bit of a sore loser. His dad lost an election fair and square but he says it was stolen. Now he's trying to blame the Australian Government for his poor ticket sales and canceled tour," she wrote.

"Donald Trump Jr. has been given a visa to come to Australia. He didn't get canceled. He's just a big baby, who isn't very popular," another now-scrubbed Twitter post read.

Trump Jr., meanwhile, has not yet commented on the tour's postponement while O'Neil's office later confirmed the tweets were deleted.

Opposition home affairs spokesman James Paterson reposted her Twitter barbs, adding, "It's good to see these childish tweets have now been deleted. The Minister should leave the woke tweets to Labor backbenchers and get back to focusing on the serious national security challenges facing Australia."

Meanwhile, Trump Jr. has continued to show support for his father amid his pursuit to win the 2024 Republican nomination for president.

RadarOnline.com exclusively learned that amid his coinciding legal battles, Trump has been on the search for a new lawyer like his late fixer, Roy Cohn, to help him fight off the criminal charges in Florida over his alleged mishandling of classified documents after two of his lawyers resigned.
