In his video series, *Real Coffee with Scott Adams*, he recounted how he initially sent Trump&#8217;s call to voicemail, only to discover later that it was indeed the President reaching out to check on him. <\/p>\n<p>Adams expressed surprise at receiving a second call shortly after, during which Trump inquired about his health and assured him, &#8220;If you need anything, I&#8217;ll make it happen.&#8221; Adams reflected on the conversation as an extraordinary and enjoyable experience, noting that Trump seemed genuinely concerned about his well-being. This unexpected connection has been especially impactful for Adams, who remarked on the peculiar yet notable nature of their interaction during such a challenging time.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-header-search-button-mob dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><span class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-button\"><i class=\"tdb-mobile-menu-icon td-icon-mobile\"><\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search\" aria-labelledby=\"td-header-search-button\">\n<div class=\"tdb-drop-down-search-inner\">\n<form method=\"get\" class=\"tdb-search-form\" action=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\"><\/form>\n<div class=\"tdb-aj-search\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/#\" role=\"button\" aria-label=\"Search\" class=\"tdb-head-search-btn dropdown-toggle\" data-toggle=\"dropdown\"><i class=\"tdb-search-icon td-icon-search\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<h1 class=\"tdb-title-text\">Trump calls Dilbert creator Scott Adams after prostate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/our-prayers-are-with-rush-limbaughs-producer-issues-statement-amid-radio-hosts-absence\/\" title=\"\u2018Our Prayers Are With Rush\u2019: Limbaugh\u2019s Producer Issues Statement Amid Radio Host\u2019s Absence\">cancer diagnosis<\/a><\/h1>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-title-line\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"tdb-block-inner td-fix-index\">\n<div id=\"Brid_2129089\" class=\"tpd-featured-video bridtv\"><\/div>\n<p>Scott Adams, the creator of the comic strip <em>Dilbert<\/em>, said he and President <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/donald-trump\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Donald Trump<\/a> had a &ldquo;fun&rdquo; conversation after the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/president\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">president<\/a> left him a voicemail to check in on Adams following his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/tag\/cancer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">cancer<\/a> diagnosis.<\/p>\n<p>Adams <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/news\/3416660\/scott-adams-dilbert-creator-prostate-cancer\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">announced<\/a> he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate&nbsp;cancer on Monday.
