Trump picks outspoken ‘alpha male’, Hooters aficionado Nick Adams as next US ambassador to Malaysia

37 comments

Now I'm waiting for the "US embassador Nick Adams arrested in Malaysia for rape" headline.
- I was gonna comment child sex trafficking, but pretty much the same idea.
- Diplomatic immunity. They can't arrest him, the most they can do is kick him out of the country.
  
  “US ambassador Nick Adams missing during impromptu jungle trek in Malaysia"

Is there anything douchier than a guy who calls himself an alpha male?
- A guy who writes a book about it?
  
  He wrote MULTIPLE books about it!
- While wearing an ascot

The dude's really wearing an ascot with a straight face like that, isn't he?
- I was going to make a joke about how that face doesnt look straight, but no, that man is unironically and heterosexually wearing an ascot without the slightest bit of flair, style, or panache. Like good gods man its an ascot, you gotta treat it like it's a purple suit, you either wear the hell out of it or you put it back until you can
  
  Looking in the mirror after getting abandoned by another blind date who called him "shallow, bland, and aggravating" just before disappearing.
  "I have a good personality. An ascot is personality, right?"
- I bet his voice sounds like Thurston Howell the 3rd.
  (very old reference)
  
  He calls himself an alpha king so he's gonna sound like a removed

Sweet, fucking baby Jesus. This is truly the dumbest timeline.

He's gonna abuse his Malaysian maid isn't he?
- You mean the one he has now or the one the government will be paying for?
- Don't be ridiculous. The maids here (we call them domestic helpers) are from other asean countries in the region. Plenty of local girls to go around for an expat paedo to grope. Foreigner worship and scoring an expat mate is a thing here.
  /s (not really)

every news from the US in 2025 sounds like an episode of House of Cards. We're not even done with the year yet man
Epstein file doesnt have anything
missing minutes from CCTV because the camera "reset" everytime.
a new NASA director who never had any space experiences. Dont worry though, the guy starred in an MTV series.
ICE. I guess no need to explain further: unjust, racist, shit tons of money.
denaturalization is a thing now , apparently.
and a lot more. The fucked up part is we are not even done with trump, he still has 3.5 years left !
- Not if we convert all 20 seats held by Republicans in the 2026 midterm elections. Then the orange man has to go away.
  
  Yeah, but a war is happening half a world away and my feels is hurt. I think I'll sit it out in protest. Damn the parties for not fielding credible candidates!

Isn't he like....mostly just twitter famous??
- and hes from australia too. hes graying at 39, age isnt kind to him.
  
  Isn't that normal? I mean people can start greying in their 20s.
  
  Of all the things that make this guy so unpleasant, grey hair is waaay down the list.
  
  But he's wearing an ascot! Those are rich, dignified grays! You can tell he's rich and cultured.
  ...Cuz of the ascot.

This Australian can only apologise.
For shame.
- Just forge a latter from the prime minister inviting him over for a swim. We can all get over it.

My prediction is this guy has active involvement in human trafficking and that this position enables that work.

Your royal garment my king.

Alpha as in unstable and full of bugs? Yeah I can see that

I dunno, Malaysia might like him.
- Cannot confirm, i want him send back.
  
  Just return to sender his forehead when he arrives and send him back on the plane
