In a final message dated Jan. 1 and read by his ex-wife, Adams wrote that he was accepting Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior in his last days; he had also posted a video announcing a conversion to Christianity. Former President Donald Trump publicly responded to Adams&#8217; earlier health posts and later offered condolences after his death. Adams launched Dilbert in 1989 and at its peak the strip was syndicated in about 2,000 newspapers; he also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/dilbert-creator-and-right-wing-commentator-scott-adams-dies-at-age-68-2\/\" title=\"&#039;...&#039; ... and Right-Wing Commentator ...
