I don't know how more people are simply embarrassed to death by this administration. They are brutal, anti-democratic, and hateful But appointing Nick freaking Adams to be the ambassador to an important country (Malaysia) is an embarrassment. It's not what a serious country does.
Why be embarrassed? WE ARE NOT doing it. I do not wear other people's shame, I didn't vote for the pig. Yes they are what you've said. That is on them and the whole world sees. EVERY THINK he's DOING IS ILLEGAL, he's a FRAUD.
because 90% (at least) of Americans 1) Will never know 2) don't know who Nick Adams is so won't care 3) Couldn't find Malaysia on a map even if circled in red 4) Don't care - "Is the wifi still working? It is? ok - I'm good".
This is probably seen as an "elite concern" by many Americans. I would respond to them: What if your favorite college football made Nick freaking Adams the head coach?
We need more people to understand the world around us and how things like say, friendly relationships with a country like Malaysia, have direct effects on our own standard of living. I don't know how to get there.
Americans “understanding” the world around them 🤣🤣 Americans aren’t even aware of the rest of the world - we’re all just uncultured “upstart countries that’s never fought a war” according to your leaders. “America learns geography by invading other countries” is a famous quote.
Sadly, its more true than not under this American regime!
Kimberly Guilfoyle going to Greece wasn’t exactly sending our best either.
What do expect from the clown show? Nothing new
There’s so many such actions, I can’t keep up.
Used to know the ambassador to Malaysia back in the day. Attended her son’s funeral at Arlington when he was killed in an F-16 training accident at the start of the Iraq war. How we have fallen since then. Actual patriots, not some Aussie tosser troll who got arrested for jacking off at Starbucks.
Yup!
Which Nick Adams? Johnny Yuma or the guy from Priscilla Queen of the Desert. Google wasn't clear
Everything this regime does is an embarrassment.
Been embarrassed since Trump 1.
that's the idea to dumb down. cambodia put people who wore glasses in prison camps. deep jealousy and hated of real competence....and then the hatred of america, the reality and the myth.
And America didn’t think of this when you voted for these people?
He’s the self-proclaimed alpha male guy, correct?
Malaysia will likely reject him! 😃 😀 😄
And stupid. Don't forget that.
Spot-on. We get unserious officials only when enough unserious people elect them.
He wasn’t elected but now that he’s back in power there needs to be a lot more outrage and I don’t see it. Most of the country just doesn’t give a fuck.
Wait, I thought he was doing a bit.
I don't think he would be receiving this appointment if it was all a bit.
Oh, I get that. That's why I'm so surprised.
The US is no longer a serious country! At least not from the outside! Trump’s Cabinet is more like some medieval royal coterie! It’s no longer a functioning democracy! The lunatics are running the asylum that they themselves created! Rogue is more like it! Even the damned SCROTUS is corrupt!
I am more than embarrassed I, absolutely hate what the Trump Administration has done. There is not one thing that I agree with and everything done was with the help of the Supreme Court and GOP.
Trump has prioritized hiring sycophants and "yes men", who will constantly stroke his fragile ego, over persons who are actually qualified and/or have the experience to do the jobs they are hired for.
He would be wise to not get caught choking his chicken in a public restroom in Malaysia.
I voted. Ask the 90 million who didn’t. Ask the swap voter protest voters who got us here. I’m not embarrassed I’m pissed.
I was only vaguely aware of that guy but seems like he spent most of his life in Australian local politics?
Did he really? Seriously? I mean seriously? Isn’t the guy a troll account like 3 Year Letterman?
✋
Millions of people think that governing a superpower isn't really a serious business and that trolling each other is the primary function of politics.
People are saying it's the death of expertise.
Or democracy
We got exactly the president we deserve. Not the world, not future generations, not past generations, and not all of us Americans who showed up and voted against this, deserve this. But a majority of us don’t think any of this is serious. That’s embarrassing
Are we sure he's here legally? Should ICE be knocking on his door? (Or kicking it in, whatever they do)
I hope they put a bunch of beta fish in his office
Can you imagine being the leader of Malaysia and having to grant this dickbag an official audience?
Good lord. I had concluded he had to be a parody account.
me too
Nick Adams? The former Australian height impaired "Alpha Male"?? That Nick Adams? WTAF?
It’s almost as if all of the whistleblowing was right, and he has been working as a Russian operative this whole time. Destabilizing our economy, culling the masses, isolating us from our allies. …what else could someone in espionage do that isn’t already being done?
It's how bad things happen.
I hope he tries to spread Christmas spirit there. FAFO...
Alfalfa man Nick Adams???
As a European, I feel like I'm watching the downfall of an empire. I have no faith in that the USA will survive this.
As an American I feel like we fell quite some time ago (I date it to 9/11 but history tells me to look further back). What’s happening now is not the decline or collapse it’s the decomposition of the corpse.
Oh I agree with that statement. But it's now actually happening. For the longest time, I've seen America degrade with every year I visited. My country (🇳🇱 The Netherlands), is warning people to not go to the USA too. Things can get out of hand fast. But yes, the decline started a while back.
Nick Adams?????? He is an incompetent MAGAt fool who pretends to be a journalist.
If you’re not embarrassed by this administration, you’re either totally out of touch with reality or a trump cultist, or both.
I suspect that Malaysia will soon have a Hooter's on every street corner. 🙄
Well that’s the thing. We are no longer a serious country.
Seems like undersecretary for Epstein Island might have been his preferred position.
This is not a country, serious or otherwise. To continue to expect this administration as adhering to our morals and America's past values seems silly at best. Like wondering why radical Islamists don't respond to death threats.
“Brutal, anti-democratic, and hateful”. Thank you for using this clear language. Hoping more will join you.
