Bill Gates, Elon Musk, and President Donald Trump recently dined for a three-hour chat.
Apparently the topics covered everything from HIV cures to polio.
Gates was interviewed by Wall Street Journal and he went over how his dinner with President Trump went.
Despite outgoing Biden’s warnings about the growing influence of tech billionaires, Gates was kissing up to Trump.
Oh to be a fly on that wall.
I wonder if Gates was disappointed that his chemically sprayed Apeel food was most likely not on the menu?
The Daily Beast reports:
Bill Gates, the founder of Microsoft and the Gates Foundation, who is worth $160 billion, has revealed the details of his anticipated three-hour dinner with President-elect Donald Trump.
ADVERTISEMENTGates told The Wall Street Journal that the “wide-ranging” conversation, which included Elon Musk, focused heavily on public health issues. The Gates Foundation specializes in global health, among other philanthropic causes.
According to the tech tycoon, Trump was “excited” about fast-tracking a cure for HIV, similar to how the COVID-19 vaccine was fast-tracked during the pandemic.
Gates was also “impressed” by how interested Trump was into solving other global health issues, such as polio.
In his farewell address on Wednesday, outgoing President Joe Biden warned of a “tech-industrial complex” and an “oligarchy” of powerful elites who wield increasing societal influence.
He was likely talking about the gaggle of tech billionaires who surround Trump. These billionaires make increasingly significant decisions and wield growing influence over affairs traditionally left up to the state.
JUST IN: Bill Gates says he was very “impressed” by Trump during their three hour dinner together.
Everyone is falling in line. Interesting.
Gates said he and the president elect had a very “intriguing” conversation about global health.

If you ever wondered if Gates is just like us, wonder no more.
This video is proof that he’s just a regular joe, as he’s seen eating a hot dog in Time Square.
Try to forget that he wants to lower the population by millions…

This weird dude who pushes for faux meat and poo water expects you to take health advice from him.
And how the heck is he just walking around in public so comfortably?https://t.co/Iv0Y8Wy56U pic.twitter.com/YnirjDA44q
