US president Donald Trump has named Hooters-loving, “alpha male” MAGA supporter Nick Adams as his ambassador to Malaysia, despite the fact his X account is so right-wing it almost seems like a parody.
Nick Adams, whose legal name is Nicholas Adamopoulos, has indeed been named US ambassador to Malaysia. The right-wing influencer immigrated from Australia to the US in 2012. He became a naturalised citizen in 2021.
On Thursday (10 July), Adams took to X to post a “thank you to the greatest president ever” for choosing him. A video accompanying the post shows Adams saying that he has been “armed with the pen of diplomacy.”
Comments under the post were united in believing Adams was a fake account set up to poke fun at MAGA supporters. One person commented, “I thought this guy was parody the whole time?” Another wrote, poking fun at his previous tweet, “I’m so incredibly proud to have an Alpha Male as my ambassador to Malaysia.”
Mr. President, thank you for the honor of a lifetime. In your America, all dreams come true. It will be my honor to represent the United States of America in Malaysia.

Even just a brief look at Adams’ X account reveals some bizarre truths – including an obsession with the restaurant chain Hooters, which primarily recruits young women as servers and has them dress in revealing outfits while attending tables. The company’s name is a slang term for women’s breasts.
In a tweet posted in September last year, Adams shared that his identity as an “alpha male” means he prefers the company of other men, dines at “Hooters 4–6 times per week”, watches every Trump rally “start to finish,” and refuses to eat “female M&Ms.”
Adding to his extensive list of attributes, he noted that he’s “highly educated,” fluent in “3+ languages”– though he doesn’t specify which – “devilishly handsome,” “extremely charismatic,” and has “no intention of apologising. For any of it”.
Responses to the tweet were, of course, as hilarious as the tweet itself. One person commented, “you forgot you’re unapologetically humble,” to which Adams responded, “Jim, good catch!!! Thank you. You are correct!”
I am an alpha male.

– I prefer the company of other men.
– I drive the ball an average of 302 yards.
– I dine at Hooters 4-6x per week.
– I watch every Trump rally start to finish.
– I like my steaks big and medium rare.
– I drink my coffee hot and black.
– I go hard in the…
Social media users have also reacted to Adams’ election with memes and jokes, including one person who captioned another of his tweets – again about enjoying Hooters, eating rare steak, and having the “physique of a Greek God”– with, “Trump just put this guy in the government.”

A different tweet saw someone call out Adams as a “pathetic dude” after a former Hooters girl criticised people who dine there as betas.
Nick Adams is one pathetic dude! 🤣 pic.twitter.com/IBygLMzeCb

Someone else said of Adams’ appointment: “If there was any doubt that Trump and his admin are just unserious people, look no further than his latest appointment, silly Twitter troll Nick Adams, ambassador to Malaysia.”

Nothing is serious, except trump's desperate attempts to distract from the Epstein client list. pic.twitter.com/LpREB23GpQ
Adams’ X account shares his anti-woke “alpha male” values. In 2022, he took to X to write that he was tired of “beta males and feminists trying to guilt alpha males out of eating at Hooters”.
I am sick and tired of beta males and feminists trying to guilt alpha males out of eating at Hooters.

There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with eating at Hooters on a weekly basis, EVEN with the family and kids.
He also complained about a brief lesbian kiss in the 2022 Pixar film Lightyear, writing: “Lightyear is one of the most disgusting and woke movies to ever be created. They castrated Buzz Lightyear in the name of Marxism.”
Toy Story 3 is one of the most disgusting and woke movies to ever be created.

They made Buzz Lightyear turn Mexican and he was speaking Spanish pretty much the whole time. He swayed his hips all erotic and I got hard right there in the theater next to some kids. Disgusting. pic.twitter.com/q2XewdgrdJ
Adams also referred to notable rappers – Snoop Dogg, Kendrick Lamar, and 50 Cent, to name a few – who performed at the Super Bowl LVI halftime show as “hoodlums,” stating that “Ted Nugent, Kid Rock, and Lee Greenwood would put on a better Halftime Show.” The comment was widely mocked, and also perceived by many to be racist.
