Scott Adams, the creator of the “Dilbert” comic strip, blasted President Trump’s white supremacist answer during the presidential debate, saying, “He screwed me.”

Adams, who has defended Trump for his comments about the deadly 2017 Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville, Va., said during his recent podcast the president lost his vote due to his answer on debate moderator Chris Wallace’s white supremacy question.

“He botched it,” Adams said. “It was a layup. It was free money sitting on the f---ing table and he left it there, and he left me on that table, too. He left me just exposed.

“He lost my vote,” he added “Can he get it back? Yeah, all he’d have to do is fix that.”

1. So, everthing else Trumpy does is OK with Scotty.

Unreal

[dhill926]

2. Hey Scott...

fuck you...

[traladeda]

[marble falls]

4. Love Dilbert. Loathe Scott.

[TheCowsCameHome]

8. Very principled thinking.

9. Saw this immediately after I posted below. What a lying, disgusting, rabid little unethical louse.

My apologies to actual louses.

[Hortensis]

22. Well, that's fixed me. Now I own all future RW crimes.

But then, the anti-Democratic left and the Republicans have been claiming their doings are all our fault anyway. No change here.

[Miguelito Loveless]

23. Yeah, I suspected it was a bit

[William Seger]

29. Which means they were right about you, huh

[Grokenstein]

37. In other words: he's okay with white-supremo nuttery to pwn teh libz.

Color me shocked; Scott was recently screeching that the unwatchably dull Dilbert cartoon was cancelled because Scott Adams is white. And that "they" told him that to his face. (And he saw one of the babies, and the baby looked at him.)

It was canned--along with a bunch of other barrel-bottom shows far less "Wonder Bread" than Dilbert--a decade ago, and he was sniveling about it a couple of months ago.

All them Those People be out to get him! They're probably why the Dilbert comic strip is one of those has-been loser strips that fill space in my local free fishwrapper.

[rickyhall]

48. Coward

[niyad]

6. Never read the strip before. Now, knowing the cartoonist is a trumpian, never will.

[RestoreAmerica2020]

10. Peel one vote at a time. Don't get what he meant by "he left me exposed" anyone? I couldnt get p

..video for aome reason to read remainder of article.

[Hortensis]

11. Well, let's just hope other racism-supporters take it personally also.

Imagine, this guy thinks THIS exposed him.

If we can't make decent people out of supporters of, for instance, incredibly vicious cruelty against children and executions of citizens on the street -- and we can't, let's be glad when Trump angers and embarrasses a few by not lying for them when they imagine it would matter.

[Cha]

12. Scott Adams is Fucking Full of Shite

[mikeargo]

13. Dilbert hasn't been funny in over 20 years

[rockfordfile]

14. So the guy is a racist pos.

[LiberalLovinLug]

15. another one using the first excuse that came along to make sure they jump ship in time

while trying to save face at the same time.

So obvious. Sorry, you don't get off that easy.

I can't wait until after the election, assuming Trump loses, and even MORE shite comes out about his traitorous crimes, the likes of Collins, and Graham, and others will be going in front of the cameras whining how "if they only knew" blah blah blah.


“Can he get it back? Yeah, all he’d have to do is fix that.”

So a teleprompter read of someone else's written speech, like the one he read after his first Charlettesville statement. The one he read, in monotone, with dead eyes, like he was taking medicine? I guess that was enough for you then.

[beachbumbob]

16. Sorry Scott, you deserve zero respect, trump fucks everything in

the end

[johnthewoodworker]

17. So, old Scott just now figured out pussy grabber is a racist. Scotty lacks insight and ethics.

[jorgevlorgan]

18. Oh no he already changed his mind. People were mean to him online, so white supremacy is okay again.

26. He thinks he's Andy Kaufman

but he’s actually a 4th rate James O’Keefe.

[marble falls]

30. I dunno. James O'Keefe is a 4th rate Jacob Wohl. Jacob Wohl is a 4th rate Roger Stone.

[BumRushDaShow]

32. And Roger Stone is a 4th rate Lee Atwater

[marble falls]

33. Well played!!!

[BumRushDaShow]

36. All cut from the same rotten cloth.

[Miguelito Loveless]

45. Can't argue with that logic

[marble falls]

27. What a prototypical snowflake.

[MissMillie]

19. What the $%&@ took you so long? (n/t)

[OnDoutside]

20. Poor Scott wanted to keep his racism veiled... that's what upsets

him.

[Miguelito Loveless]

21. Scott, no one believes you anymore.

Of all the things you have been okay with Trump doing, hard to believe a simple promise to violently overthrow the Republic would upset you.

You are either very evil, or very, very sick. Either way...

[They_Live]

24. insert Nelson

Ha-Ha

[marble falls]

31. okay ...

[They_Live]

47. Thanks

[DBoon]

28. Scott -

"You eat a lot of acid back in the hippie days?"

[ihas2stinkyfeet]

35. the one trumpkin in my life

one of many reasons he is so very dead to me.

[cry baby]

38. Big fat whiny Boo-Fucking-Hoo! nt

[Autumn]

39. Fuck you Scott. Your comic strip is stupid and has no redeeming quality. Like you and Trump

You both showed your true colors. That's what racists pieces of shit like you and him do.

[Locrian]

41. the comic strip does suck...

Some subtle and not so subtle misogyny and racial stereotyping in it
Also seems like Dilbert is one of the incels

I expect to see a strip with Dilbert and gang waving AR15s at protesters any day now...

[Locrian]

40. so he's only pissed that he said it out loud...they're both racist pieces of shit - n/t

.

[SpankMe]

43. I used to love Dilbert. Now, I hate Dilbert.

It shocks me that such funny, insightful comics can come from a Trumper.
