35. Nick Adams is a Trump sycophant who has now obviously decided it would be helpful

to his status as a Big Name Asskisser in the RW alternate universe to suck up to Musk and everyone the RW sees as powerful, including the grotesque alpha-male-parody Andrew Tate, who was allowed back on Twitter by Musk, as I posted earlier:

The idiocy there in a reply to Adams

If Nick Adams has a million fans, I’m one of them

If Nick Adams has a hundred fans, I’m one of them

If Nick Adams has ten fans, I’m one of them

If Nick Adams has one fan, then i’m him

If Nick Adams has no fans, then i am no longer alive

is adapted from a reply Tate has his many Twitter followers posting about him. Just change Adams' name to Tate's.

As for whether any of these nitwits are alpha in the sense of being strong or leaders - no. They're fools who think that boasting makes them strong, or that slavishly following someone who's boasting somehow also makes them strong.

They're all pathetic.
