'Dilbert' creator Scott Adams reveals President Trump called him after cancer diagnosis

He’s the Commander in Mensch.

Scott Adams, the creator of the popular comic strip “Dilbert,” was surprised to receive not just one, but two phone calls and a voicemail from President Trump after he announced that he had cancer.

The “Reframe Your Brain” author, 67, revealed Monday that he, like former President Joe Biden, has been diagnosed with prostate cancer that has spread to his bones.

Days after the announcement, Adams received a call from a “number from Florida” that he didn’t recognize and sent straight to voicemail, he revealed in a video shared on X Thursday.

“The first sentence of the [voicemail] transcription…is ‘This is your favorite president,’” Adams said, chuckling, adding, “Did I just send the most important person in the world to voicemail?”

President Trump left a “semi-lengthy” voicemail checking in on Adams that included a number the “Dilbert Principle” writer was to use to call him back.

“Now obviously I don’t call him back because that would be ridiculous. It was just a nice thing for him to say,” the celebrated scrawler rationalized.

Several hours later, Adams gets another call from a “Florida number” he doesn’t recognize — “I thought to myself, ‘No f—king way.’”

“I answer it and it’s Trump,” Adams recounted, still in disbelief.

“He was just checkin’ on me and he wanted to make sure I was getting everything I needed,” he said.

The “Win Bigly” author has been a Trump booster since the 2015 Republican Primary and a vocal online pundit for the two-time president on his daily internet show “Coffee with Scott Adams.”

“At the end, the strangest thing happened. At the end of the call, when he found out that the situation was kinda dire,” Adams recalled, “He said, ‘If you need anything, I’ll make it happen.’”

“And he meant it,” he added, laughing in disbelief.

In the wake of Biden’s dramatic health news announced earlier this week, Adams revealed that he has the same diagnosis and that he expects to die in the coming months.

“I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has. I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones,” Adams said during an episode of “Coffee with Scott Adams” on Monday.

“My life expectancy is maybe this summer,” he added. “I expect to be checking out from this domain sometime this summer.”

Biden, 82, announced through a spokesperson Sunday that he has “aggressive” prostate cancer that spread to the bones, which was supposedly discovered just this month.

“Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,” a statement from Biden’s personal office read. “On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone.”

President Trump has expressed doubt regarding the claim that Biden just found out about the ghastly Stage 9 cancer diagnosis.

“I’m surprised the public wasn’t notified a long time ago,” Trump said to reporters in the Oval Office Monday. 

“This is dangerous for our country,” he added.
