Scott Adams: In his own words
As the American presidential race heats up, you’ll see a lot of bad thinking emerge, especially mine. So I thought it would be useful to agree on some ground rules to keep each other in line. I give you my first draft (subject to your improvements) of A Voter’s Guide to…
Read MoreSuppose that instead of temporarily banning Muslim immigration as Trump proposes – which offends our sense of religious tolerance – we ban violent anti-Americanism, but we do it statistically instead of individually. That way we can discriminate in the service of national self-defense and not feel so icky about it….
Read MoreToday Trump said that Hillary Clinton “Killed hundreds of thousands of people with her stupidity.” He was talking about the Middle East and Clinton’s tenure as Secretary of State. According to the Master Persuader filter, that statement will set off a week of media yapping about how many thousands of people Clinton “killed” with…
Read MoreA few quick things of note. Trump has been saying Hillary Clinton lacks the “strength and stamina” to run for President. In a strange turn of events, Clinton confirms that the campaign is exhausting. She also offered a weak reason why it is still “fun,” but it sounded a little sad. She doesn’t…
Read MoreI’m planning to take a month off from cartooning, sometime soon, to finish work on the Dilbert movie script and launch a start-up that’s just about ready. The only wrinkle in my plan is that I need to create a comic every day. So…here’s my tentative plan. I’m looking for…

Act now! 😉 As regular readers know, I have been writing about the persuasive skills of Donald Trump. You might also know I’m a certified hypnotist and I’ve been studying…

Read MoreTrump’s critics like to label him a fascist. I didn’t know what that word meant, so I made the mistake of looking it up. It turns out that no one agrees what the word means. So if you use the word, you’re literally acting like an idiot, because the word has…
Read MoreOver at 2016 Presidential Campaign Predictions they are tracking pundit predictions for the presidential race, including mine [no longer available]. But they have my Trump prediction dated in November. The first time I predicted he would win it all was August. I revised the prediction to “landslide” in October. In the unlikely event that my August…
Read MoreBusiness Insider reports that Trump’s favorability rating among Republican voters was 23% before he announced his candidacy. In July it had climbed to 59%. Today it is 69%. That means it tripled this year. As the article notes, this is surprising because Trump has been a known quantity for decades, and people generally…
