Scott Adams, the creator of “Dilbert,” found himself trapped in a nightmarish healthcare wait—or should we call it a bureaucratic chokehold? His metastatic prostate cancer required a newly approved drug called Pluvicto, but getting the treatment scheduled through his provider, Kaiser Permanente of Northern California, turned into a maddening game of “who’s responsible?” The answer? A typical bureaucratic mess that left a sick man scrambling for help.
When his appointment couldn’t be booked promptly, Adams took the bold step of appealing directly to Donald Trump. Why? Because in today’s broken system, it sometimes takes a former president to cut through government red tape and bureaucratic indifference. And Trump didn’t disappoint. Within hours, Trump Jr. had flagged the issue to his father, and the “best president ever,” as Adams calls him, leapt into action. Suddenly, multiple high-level officials—including Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. Mehmet Oz—were involved, making calls, sending texts, and pressuring Kaiser to move. This is the kind of aggressive leadership that the left-wing health establishment simply won’t provide.

Let’s be blunt: this is what happens when you put government-run or heavily regulated healthcare systems in charge of life-or-death treatment. Kaiser, as a private group still heavily entangled in progressive mandates and government contracts, dropped the ball where it mattered most—getting a man his FDA-approved cancer treatment. It’s a slow, cold, heartless machine that turns patients into statistics to shuffle through endless forms and procedures. Scott Adams, despite being a famous figure, had to shout into the void and call on a former president to get actual help. Imagine what happens to ordinary Americans who don’t have that kind of platform or political access.
The contrast couldn’t be starker. While liberal healthcare systems and woke bureaucrats dither, President Trump’s team cuts through the nonsense with swift action. Why? Because Trump understands urgency and values results, not endless delays and political grandstanding. This is the difference between a real leader and the spineless amateurs now roaming Washington, who’d rather let American citizens suffer than upset unionized hospital staff or challenge their elite donors in Big Pharma.
What Adams is going through exposes the rotten core of left-wing healthcare policy. They claim to prioritize “care,” but their actions prove they’re more interested in control—strict rules, slow approvals, and bureaucratic barriers. This isn’t compassion; it’s cruelty disguised as concern. Adams’ case shows how conservatives and patriots still embody real action, real solutions, and a country that refuses to accept the slow death of American healthcare.
The question is clear: why should Americans accept a system that forces them to beg former presidents for help in their darkest moments? The answer is simple—because the left has weaponized government healthcare into a tool of oppression and delay. It’s time to demand leadership that delivers, not speeches that stall. Scott Adams got help because he reached out to Trump. What about everyone else? Are they supposed to simply accept the system’s indifference until it’s too late? America deserves better.
