  1. >Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. responded to Adams’ post and revealed that the ask had already made its way to Trump.

    >”Scott. How do I reach you?” Kennedy wrote in an Xreply. “The President wants to help.”

    Are they going to offer the same treatment to everyone who has cancer?

    And yet Trump cancels cancer research grants at universities across the country. Make it make sense.

    Is there cancer cures that everyday Americans are not privy to? Similar to the Covid drugs Trump got that the rest of us had no access to. “Survival of the Richest”. Inequality in America knows no bounds.

    Put him on an ACA exchange and let him pay like everyone else. Or…every person impacted by the rate hikes should inundate the WH and their Senate and House reps with letters, emails and phone calls asking for assistance.

    Conservatives when anyone else legitimately needs help: “Fuck you, you’re on your own, nobody owes you anything and you deserve nothing.”

    Conservatives when they need something: “Help me! You owe me this, I deserve it!”

  6. Scott Adams is worth 20 million dollars. Hard to believe that he couldn’t solve his own health care issues with that.

  7. Why the fuck is someone with Scott Adams’ net worth using Kaiser? There are plenty of other health providers in the SF Bay Area who’d be happy to give him higher priority treatment in exchange for money. That’s exactly the health care system Republicans want, isn’t it?

  8. So like …call the office Scott. You can’t get on the schedule if you don’t have an appointment. Your provider isn’t obligated to schedule you for treatment once your prior auth is approved, the onus is on the patient to do so.

    From the article:
    “But Adams said his provider allegedly “dropped the ball in scheduling the brief IV to administer it and I can’t seem to fix that,” leading him to request Trump’s intervention.”

  9. He should try becoming a fruitarian first. Sometimes it takes a couple years to get the full effects. If that doesn’t work, try switching to a non-fluoride toothpaste, or bathing in sewage.

    Everyone dependent on SNAP can drop dead, but a high profile asslicker is priority #1

    Scott Adams will be the first ever person with metastatic prostate cancer to be cured with raw milk, saturated fats and roadkill. It will be a miracle resulting in both Trump and Kennedy sharing the Nobel Prize in medicine next year.

    Trump, of course, will also win Nobel Prizes in peace, physics, chemistry and literature as well as in the new category of Reality Show Star that the Nobel Committee will create just for him.

  12. Someone should create a comic where Dilbert asks his pointy haired boss for cancer treatments, and the boss says “I’m on it” and then goes golfing.

  13. “”I will ask President Trump if he can get Kaiser of Northern California to respond and schedule it for Monday,” Adams wrote. “That will give me a fighting chance to stick around on this planet a little bit longer.””

    What about: invisible hand, free markets, deregulation, privatized health care, bootstraps, thoughts and prayers, socialism bad, etc., etc?

  14. Dude needs help with the healthcare system he seems to love and not want to do anything about. What a pussy

  15. Well I hope that piece of garbage gets access to all the medical knowledge of Trump and RFK Jr. combined.

  16. I used to love Dilbert, and as an engineer in the former Bell system, he totally nailed the culture. (Both the Dilbert author and I were engineers in former Bell companies but different companies) I was saddened to hear about his turn to the dark side.

    So everyone with advanced cancer should contact the prez for help, as publicly as possible.

  18. Just in case you didn’t click the article: Scott Adams has prostate cancer, got approved by his doctor for drugs that could help him, and now he’s getting jerked around by his health insurance company and asking for Trump’s help.

    So basically, a guy who advocated for exactly what he’s getting decided he didn’t like it when the consequences came for him personally.

    dude has opposed healthcare reform his entire fucking life along iwht every other bullshit right wing bullshit warrior talking point and wants special treatment now that he has a cancer as effective as his politics.

    Tick tock Scott, no one will remember you.

    I think everyone should have access to life saving healthcare, including assholes like Scott Adams that have worked so hard to deny healthcare for all.

  21. This is the shit that should be meat and potatoes for dem messaging. “Donald Trump cut healthcare and raised premiums for millions of working Americans, while helping his rich donor jump the line for special treatment. Donald Trump cut funding for cancer research, but helps his rich buddies get access to the treatment that research discovered.”

    Ad naseum. Repeatedly. Force this information and perspective into the awareness of mainstream voters.

  22. So a 10 year-old with brain cancer gets deported but the fucking Dilbert guy can just send a tweet and have the admin twist his HMO’s arm for cancer treatment?
