“Dilbert” cartoonist and conservative political commentator Scott Adams died months after revealing his diagnosis with prostate cancer, his family said on Tuesday.
He was 68.
“Unfortunately, this isn’t good news,” his ex-wife Shelly Miles told Adams’ fans on YouTube. “He’s not with us … anymore.”
President Donald Trump praised Adams as a “fantastic guy, who liked and respected me when it wasn’t fashionable to do so.”
“He bravely fought a long battle against a terrible disease,” Trump said in a statement. “My condolences go out to his family, and all of his many friends and listeners.”
Just a day earlier, Adams had told fans in an online chat streamed on X that he’s “way past my expiration” date and that there are “no promises” he can live for even one more day.
“You can tell I’m getting weaker and weaker,” Adams said Monday. “I’ve been told that’s the way I’ll know how much time I have left is by how tired I am and how much pain I have.”
“My tiredness and my pain are maxing out,” he added. “I’m in quite bad shape of the bones.”
In that online meeting with friends on Monday, Adams thanked his former wife for being “the only thing keeping me alive right now.”
Adams also expressed his gratitude for conservative writer and biographer Joel Pollak for “keeping the lights on.”
“So I’m hanging on as long as I can,” Adams said. “I’m way past my … expiration (date).”
