Scott Adams, the creator of the "Dilbert" comic strip, recently shared a surprising story about a phone call he received from former President Donald Trump. This call came shortly after Adams announced that he has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.
During an episode of his show "Real Coffee with Scott Adams," he recounted how he initially sent Trump’s call to voicemail. When he checked the message, he was shocked to hear, "This is your favorite president." Adams couldn’t believe he had missed a call from someone he considered one of the most important people in the world.
Later that same day, Trump called again. This time, Adams picked up. The conversation took a serious turn when Trump learned about Adams’ health situation. Trump offered his help, saying, "If you need anything, I’ll make it happen." Adams felt that Trump genuinely meant it and appreciated the offer.
Adams also revealed that he has the same type of cancer as President Joe Biden. He has prostate cancer that has spread to his bones, and he mentioned that he has been dealing with it longer than Biden has publicly admitted.
This unexpected connection between Adams and Trump highlights the personal challenges they both face, even amid their public lives. Adams described the call as a strange yet memorable experience, emphasizing the bond they share from their journeys since 2015.
