Bill Gates is great making the case for treating HIV and all the rest of it but if he promoted billionaires paying their fair share of tax and the USA changing to single payer health care, his impact would massively increased. He’s also wasted a lot on money on pointless ventures, his foundation spent in the region of 4 billion dollars on trying to develop a vaccine for Malaria and came up with nothing, had that money just been spent on things like netting around peoples beds and insect repellent, it would have made a huge difference.
After trump got shot these so called billionaires were put on blast because trump cares about america and its people and these billionaires care about money and no tax
He is the WHO's second biggest donor. What does that say?
Wall Street journal interviewing bill gates about what he likes about trump hahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahaha hahahahaha 🤣😂
Its a nonstop glaze train lately
Boomer demographics will die earlier is medical care and pharmaceutical are more expensive to them also as well as AIDS continued medication.
Healthcare for all please.
Love Bill! One this generation’s greatest pioneers
Silicon Valley is running out of knee pads at this rate
He was nice because he likes rich people.
The perfect example of why this platform eliminated the "thumbs down" option…
Laughable…
I canceled Instagram , Amazon , Starlink and now Microsoft will go too.
This guy’s whole “good billionaire” mask fell off real fast 😂
Influential? No.
Diabolical? Yes.
Please go away. You gave caused so much pain.
Pointless interview. Trump and Gates are on the opposite side of most issues. Do better next time.
CRINGE!!! i hope you do not suffer in your old age.
Forcing people to take an mrna was criminal
He’s full of bulls—-?
President Trump just screwed over Bill Gates. He pulled out of the WHO which Bill Gates has heavy investment and interest in. Keep kissing the ring buddy because I think you lost already. The "Ether" the stuff that makes your soul burn slow. Epstein will be your downfall.
He is out of touch with reality.
Finally, I've been waiting to hear from him.
and the billionaires get on their knees. when they start abusing the legal system to go after those standing in the administrations way i wonder if people will realize whats happening.
Bill just wants to save lives. I respect this.
I am at the beginning of my "investment journey", planning to put 385K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% annually in dividend returns. any good stock recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated….
'I don't want to get tariffed!'
Isn't Epstein their mutual?
He is now sucking up to trump 😂
Why then has Trump pulled the US out of WHO? Or would want such a person like RFK jr to lead our HHS?
Jeffrey Epstein
Suddenly all the billionaires are backing trump this round, hypocricy at its best. I bet even the media and rosie o'donell will try to be on his good side
How does a techie become overseer of health with zero medical training? Gates foundation is the face of evil.
I'm going to be sick! 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
The best billionaire on earth right now. He knows taking side in politics overtly is not wise. I am very impressed with his dedication to leave a healthy legacy.
Narcissists always impress people with their feigned interest.
This guy sucks
I know why I hate WSJ Interviews! 🙂
I don't trust this man
👍
This channel is full of predictable liberals who normally love globalist and dictators but because Gates is pretending to like Trump for financial reasons like the rest of the silicon billionaire liberal phonies at his inauguration the libs on here are undecided about hating Gates now as Trump is their sworn enemy, CNN told them so. I’m out of here.
Did he also tell what about Epstein's lifestyle "intrigued" him?
Bill Gates: I coded while I hiked as a teenager. Was I on the spectrum? Probably: https://on.wsj.com/3Cr5HmT
