Meet the Trump-backed raconteur who is teaching America’s young men the art of
being hard to deal with

By Ben Terris

Nick Adams was speaking to the men in the room.

“Never apologize,” he said. “Never mask up. Never pick up the Fortnite controller. It starts with the Fortnite controller and boneless chicken wings, and ends in gender pronouns and communism. We don’t want that.”

“Damn right!” a young man in pleated khakis yelled. “Damn right, we don’t want
that.”

The crowd chuckled. The affirmation was jokey, but serious — fitting for Adams,
a happy culture warrior whose weapon of choice is not a video game controller but an X account, “Nick Adams (Alpha Male),” where he professes his love for
Hooters, 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, and posts videos about boycotting Mars candy because M&M’s had committed “egregious sexism” for having all-female packaging. He calls
his fans Nick Adams Disciples, or “Nads.”

On this occasion, the burgeoning Nads were young Republicans. They had gathered at the Capitol Hill Club to drink cheap beer, in a room decorated with porcelain
elephant statues and photographs of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Sen. John
McCain, and listen to a well-built man with a five o’clock shadow and an Australian accent tell them that “‘nasty women’ are coming for two things: your
mind and your testicles!”

Adams and Trump are eunuchs.

Adams and Trump are eunuchs.

More from the story:

And, like Trump with his “sir” stories — tales of want and gratitude in which
Trump inevitably plays the hero — Adams is prone to telling stories about
himself that sound so comically heavy-handed that they strain credulity.
Lately he’s been doing so in a way that seems tailored to the purpose of
Trump’s reelection: After President Biden’s State of the Union address Adams
told a story on X in which he is “so disgusted” by the speech that he shuts
off the television and heads to the gym, where he meets “two attractive
college educated Latina career women,” who say they, too, disliked Biden’s
speech, and that they miss President Trump. Then the three discuss Trump’s
“successful border policies,” the women ogle Adams’s muscles and the Alpha
Male pushes out a personal record on the bench press. “It wasn’t long before
a crowd had gathered to cheer me on,” Adams wrote, “the sound of my masculine
grunts broken only by the two Latina’s counting my reps in unison.”


The gym story didn't happen, just as Trump's "sir" stories never happened.


"‘Sir’ alert: This one word is a telltale sign Trump is lying"

Lots of people do call Trump “sir,” of course. But the word seems to pop into
his head more frequently when he is inventing or exaggerating a conversation
than when he is faithfully relaying one. A “sir” is a flashing red light that
he is speaking from his imagination [i.e. lying] rather than his memory.

In poker parlance, it’s a tell.

Trump has told false “sir” stories on all manner of subjects: health care,
the Middle East, the courts, unions and – just last week – both tariffs and
social media. But no genre of Trump story is more reliably sir-heavy than his
collection of suspiciously similar tales about macho men breaking into tears
of gratitude in his presence.

Every story in which Trump says some obsequious servile toady addressed him as "sir" is a complete lie.

But you accuse Trump of rape. Explain.
