“I have the same cancer that Joe Biden has. I also have prostate cancer that has also spread to my bones, but I’ve had it longer than he’s had it – well, longer than he’s admitted having it,” Adams said.

He's acting like a child about a life threatening illness. This smacks of a pity based "whataboutism" to take away from someone going through a genuinely bad time.

The 67-year-old Adams first gained fame as the creator of “Dilbert,” the satirical comic strip that focused on corporate office inanity, in 1989.

Adams has written dozens of books since then, and has become more outspoken about politics in the last decade, sharing views that are mostly pro-Donald Trump and critical of Democrats, on social media. His Rumble show has 38,000 followers, and on X, he has 1.2 million followers.

They seem to have skipped some key things in that biography.

Well, he's dying like he lived. A piece of shit.

Trying to steal the limelight?

Could he not have done this before "turning" trumpy?
