Trump's Nominates RIDICULOUS MAGA Troll To Be Ambassador
“Alpha Male” internet troll Nick Adams is now the U.S. ambassador to Malaysia.
- 13 minutes
Hooters
is a wonderful family establishment.
Any male that buys a packet of M&Ms
from today forward
must hand in their man card because they
are a soft woke beta male feminist.
[00:00:19]
For the last time, stop sending Pizza
Hut pizza to my house and if you want
to really know how I feel about the left's
woke precious pizza, I'll show you.
[00:00:35]
I'm off to Hooters with the boys.
The boycott stands.
All right, well, those were clips
of a man named Nick Adams.
[00:00:52]
And you should get to know his name,
because now he's in our government.
So for years,
he's bragged about being an alpha male.
He's complained about woke brands
and he has proclaimed his love of Hooters,
which like, I guess they have decent
curly fries today thanks to Donald Trump.
[00:01:10]
He is the nominee
for the ambassador to Malaysia.
We have many, many more Nick Adams quotes
that I get to read out loud
to all of you, I can't wait.
But first, let me get your
initial reaction
to a troll in our metaphorical dungeon.
[00:01:27]
This guy.
I mean, look, you're going
to love the quotes because.
And a lot of MAGA thinks
he's trolling, too.
He's kind of like a Borat type character.
But that was all fun and games
until he became an ambassador.
[00:01:44]
Like, so he hasn't become one yet,
but he Trump nominated him
to be ambassador to Malaysia.
This is no full blown Idiocracy.
It's I mean, the peak idiocracy.
Trump. He's a troll.
He's like a Borat character.
He's like Colbert Report.
[00:02:01]
And they took him seriously.
I mean, in fact,
we have a poll on Titcomb.
Is Nick Adams a comic or a joke?
Right.
Like, because I think I
thought he was a comic.
I thought he was making fun of MAGA.
I mean, some of the tops are.
[00:02:18]
Some of the quotes are
over the top and homoerotic.
It's hilarious.
He's now going to represent us as
the American representative to Malaysia.
All right, so find out who Nick Adams is.
Okay. Yeah.
[00:02:33]
Somebody actually made a very apt
comparison to somebody else.
And but we'll get to that in a little bit.
So Adams, if you don't know,
he began his career as the youngest
deputy mayor in Australian history.
But then he left Australian politics
and he became a motivational speaker,
[00:02:50]
a conservative activist
and a political commentator
right here in the United States.
And Adams was an early Trump supporter
back when Trump was first campaigning,
and he eventually caught Trump's attention
and the two became friends.
And it's really a sweet story.
[00:03:06]
But Adams nomination isn't the first time
that he has received
an official title from Trump.
During Trump's first term,
he made Adams a presidential appointee
to the board of a think tank
called the Woodrow Wilson Center.
Adams was also an official surrogate
for Trump's 2020 and 2024 campaigns.
[00:03:26]
But we mentioned earlier
that we had more Adams quotes.
Here they come.
So he wrote in 2023, I'm a walking,
talking masterpiece of masculinity.
Testosterone levels spike
when I enter a room.
Everywhere I go, I leave a trail
of awestruck admirers in my wake.
[00:03:45]
I don't believe that.
You know, like if there's a guy driving
next to me in a Lamborghini, I make an
effort to not look at them because, like,
I'm not going to give you that.
So anyways, but that's just me.
So the following are some excerpts
from a post that Adams wrote in 2024,
[00:04:00]
after then President Joe Biden's
State of the Union address.
Here's what he said.
I was so disgusted by Joe Biden's
State of the Union address.
I shut it off early and went to the gym
for a quick pump to calm myself down.
I was throwing some heavy weight around
when I overheard two attractive,
[00:04:19]
college educated Latina career women
discussing Biden's speech.
So Adams writes that he then went over
to talk to both of the women, and they
admitted that they missed President Trump.
So they said, why?
Or he said, why don't we continue this
discussion over here by the bench press?
[00:04:37]
I said with a twinkle in my eye.
And alpha male is going to push himself
to his limits tonight,
and he could use a couple of spotters.
They looked at each other and blushed
before dismounting the treadmill
and following me to the bench.
We continued our discussion
of Trump's successful border policies,
[00:04:53]
but I couldn't help but notice that they
were ogling my chiseled arms and bulging
chest as I powered through four more sets.
Adams writes that on his last set,
he benched 47 reps,
setting a new personal best.
[00:05:08]
Then he invited both women
back to his place.
And speaking of his place
in his latest book, Alpha Kings,
which is full of advice on how to avoid
a wife or girlfriend who ever makes you
do anything you don't want to do.
He describes his house as a wall to wall
man cave, and declares that he would never
[00:05:28]
compromise his decoration scheme
to the tastes of any cohabitating woman,
except perhaps for a small area
for her to do her scrapbooking
or host her sewing machine.
You know what I. So I have a sewing
machine, and I gotta say,
[00:05:44]
you need more than a smaller area to sew.
You have to have, like, your
ironing station and your cutting station
and then you're sewing.
It's a whole lot.
It's it's a lot of stuff.
So Adams, as you might have guessed
by now, has never been married
and he does not have any children.
[00:05:59]
Here is the advice that Nick Adams
gave a group of young Republican men
during a speech in Washington, DC.
He said, never apologize.
Never mask up,
never pick up the Fortnite controller.
It starts with Fortnite controller
and boneless chicken wings and ends
[00:06:15]
up in gender pronouns and communism.
We don't want that.
So like, what is the deal with this guy?
And is Adams sincere?
Or is this like a part that he's playing?
So to that end, one of Adams security
guards told a Washington Post journalist
[00:06:32]
last year, you remember Andy Kaufman.
All right. We do remember Andy Kaufman.
And he had a very interesting
relationship with reality.
A long time friend of Adams
told that same journalist,
it's not that he's playing a character,
it's just that he is a character
[00:06:50]
that doesn't clear up a whole lot.
So Trump has released a statement
about all of this.
He wrote on Trump,
on Trump wrote on Truth Social.
He said, I am pleased to announce
that Nick Adams will be nominated as the
next United States Ambassador to Malaysia.
[00:07:05]
Nick is an incredible patriot
and very successful entrepreneur
whose love of and devotion
to our great nation is an inspiration.
Nick is a best selling author,
speaker and commentator.
Nick graduated from the University
of Sydney and since then has made
[00:07:21]
it his life's mission to extoll
the virtues of American greatness.
Congratulations, Nick.
So. And here is how well we have one more.
Let's just see what Nick Adams had to say.
And his reaction to the news.
[00:07:38]
Receiving the call of duty is the greatest
day in the life of any American.
Accepting this call of duty should be
the easiest decision made by any American.
This sacred call comes to us at different
times in our lives and in different ways.
[00:07:55]
It is nothing short of a lifetime's honor
to take the president's goodwill and
spread it to the great people of Malaysia.
It is, Mr. President, my honor, to
represent you and serve our nation before
King Ibrahim Iskandar and his people.
[00:08:14]
To His Majesty, I look forward to working
with your government to strengthen ties
between our friendly peoples.
All right.
I feel like I need a cigarette
after reading all that.
And I don't smoke.
What do you think about all that?
[00:08:30]
I need a vomit bag.
So. So that's why we're
asking the poll on Titcomb.
Like comic or joke?
Because that's what people
are trying to figure out.
Andy Kaufman, you know?
Sacha Baron Cohen, Stephen Colbert,
or does he actually mean it?
[00:08:46]
And he's like the world's biggest joke.
What a doofus.
So because guys, wait,
we didn't get to the homoerotic stuff.
So let me give you that.
And there's loads of this, if you will.
But that might be a second explanation
as to why he's not married.
No, no, but I'll let
you make the call here.
[00:09:04]
I'm just going to give you two for.
Because we don't have enough time.
Okay.
But he's talking about playing golf
with his buddies,
and he does this all the time.
And then he goes.
A foursome with the boys.
Will be the most fun
you'll ever have in your entire life.
And I thought, like, he's.
And then another time he wrote,
I love watching Mario handle my meat.
[00:09:24]
And he's constantly talking, like
with these double entendres about golf.
And he's like.
And then my shaft was sharpened
by Bob or whatever it was.
I'm doing that one from memory.
But so like when I read those,
those are so over the top, I'm like,
I get it, he's a character, right?
He's playing a character, and at some
point he's going to go, ha ha, my guy.
[00:09:42]
I told you, right?
Like, this was an epic like lifelong troll
and hence the Andy Kaufman reference.
But there's some chance he is actually
that ridiculous and that I mean,
really like, if he's for real, there's
a good chance he's gay and has no idea.
[00:10:00]
Like, I mean, at night he knows.
But during the day, right?
Like he's like, all right, me and the boys
are gonna have a foursome, and we're going
to roll around in the grass and the mud
and handle each other's jabs.
And you see how conservative I am? Do I?
I'm not sure I do.
So, is this what you guys are proud of?
[00:10:19]
Come on. So then I wondered.
So I did a tweet
and I wanted to see Maga's reaction.
And a bunch of them, of course, were mad
at me and like, oh, you don't get it, man.
He's awesome
or patriot or whatever, right?
But then a bunch of them did get it.
And I want to read you one
that is a little bit representative,
[00:10:37]
by the way, doesn't represent
the majority of the MAGA guys who replied,
but it's just interesting.
So this guy Hibachi Militia wrote in.
I've been wondering why he stopped being
funny and became a full time professional.
Glazer.
Okay, so I think that some portion
of the Trump voters,
[00:10:56]
and apparently Adams himself.
Began to realize, oh, wait a minute,
people are taking this seriously.
Maybe I can get something out of this.
So then he became yet another
professional ass kisser of Donald Trump.
And to be fair to him. It worked.
[00:11:11]
If you kiss Trump's ass hard enough and
deep enough, you might get that foursome
you were looking for with the boys.
Hard enough and deep enough.
Yes, absolutely.
Like, it's so bizarre, you know. And.
But I think you said something earlier
about this being, like, a lifelong grift.
[00:11:29]
You know, he moved
to the United States from Australia.
But you know what?
Maybe it is like I wouldn't be surprised
if it was because somebody who is moving
to the United States at that time.
Right.
And says, you know what?
I want to be an influencer.
I want to be famous.
I want to be whatever.
[00:11:46]
That was kind of the way to do it was
to become like a mega influencer, right?
To be an early adopter of Trump, because
at the time, I know it's hard to remember.
But back in 2015,
Trump was such a ridiculous person, right?
Even the idea of Trump as
a presidential candidate was ridiculous.
[00:12:03]
It was ridiculous all the way up
until the point he was our president.
Up until the night
he became our president.
It was a ridiculous thing.
So it was easy for people to go viral
for saying, like,
really supportive things about Trump,
because that was like the shock that that
would get people, all the views and it
[00:12:23]
would help them go viral back in the day.
And then maybe he just kept riding
that wave and couldn't get off it.
And why would he?
Because now he has a paid gig in Malaysia,
you know, like, good for him.
I guess he's living his best life.
I mean, he's clearly a troll because
nobody talks the way that he talks, right?
[00:12:40]
Nobody makes the jokes that he's
he he makes in real life, you know?
But at the same time, it's like
nothing feels real anymore, right?
Like this.
Like, usually you'd be able to look
at somebody like this and be like, that's
a troll, I get it, I know what that is.
[00:12:55]
But today, I feel like everything is so,
so nebulous.
Is everything.
Like the edges are all a little unclear,
and we see ridiculous people
and they turn out to be like,
totally like, I believe these things.
You know, this is so who knows?
I don't know what's real anymore.
[00:13:11]
No, I that's a great way of putting it.
Yes.
I don't know what's real anymore either.
The whole thing is surreal.
And this is like Biden nominating Borat,
like the character Borat
to be our ambassador to Borat.
Yeah, the character Borat
to be our ambassador to Kazakhstan.
[00:13:28]
That's that's the equivalent of this.
This is insanity.
Every time you ring the bell below,
an angel gets its wings.
Totally not true.
But it does keep you updated
on our live shows.
