Meet the Trump-backed raconteur who is teaching America’s young men the art of being hard to deal with
In some ways, Adams’s shtick is conventionally conservative: He’s Christian, he’s very concerned about there being only two genders, he rails against “woke.” In other ways, his version of MAGA manhood is so over-the-top, so uncanny that it almost seems like performance art. The parody theory seems especially strong when Adams’s posts on X veer into double-entendre territory — juicing engagement from snarky foes and howling fans with posts about his butcher (“I love watching Mario handle my meat”) or golf (“A foursome with the boys will be the most fun you will ever have in your entire life”).
He writes about how if your wife is “high-maintenance” then you’re a “loser” no matter how hot she is. And about his love of steak.
Is Nick Adams serious?
In a Trumpified GOP, and a Trumpified Washington, the answer is yes. He is a presidential appointee to the board of Washington’s Woodrow Wilson Center, which, according to its website, “provides nonpartisan counsel and insights on global affairs to policymakers.” Donald Trump, who bestowed him with that honor during his last term, has recently made Adams an official campaign surrogate as the former president attempts to regain control of the White House.
Adams “really likes winding people up” and sometimes “says things explicitly to piss people off,” Fischer says, but when it comes to the Alpha Male stuff, he also happens to believe what he’s saying.
“It’s not that he’s playing a character,” he says. “It’s just that he is a character.”
In Australia: As a burgeoning politician, he was a staunch nationalist who gave speeches about the importance of assimilating to Australian culture and warning against the dangers of multiculturalism.
I just read this as well. I feel like some of his stances are contradicting. Men are supposed to be the physical protective ones, but then he berates a woman for not carrying his luggage through the airport. He makes fun of the journalist for ordering salmon. Hard to believe such a catch is not married yet!
Ok, I couldn't get past this line - "...makes goofy claims like how billionaire pop superstar Taylor Swift is only dating NFL tight end Travis Kelce because she wants a piece of his $70,000 Super Bowl bonus check..."
Did you know Taylor Swift has a net worth of $1.1 billion with a B!? Kelce is only worth a paltry $30 million.
