About て当然だ

当然(とうぜん) is a commonly used expression which indicates that '(A) is natural', or '(A) is a matter of course'. This is a combination of the て-form of either verbs of い-Adjectives (or で when used with nouns), the noun 当然(とうぜん) 'naturally', and だ.

当然(とうぜん) is a fairly strong phrase, and will often be used when pointing out things that the speaker considers to be obvious facts.
