Bill Gates reveals his surprising takeaways from his dinner with Donald Trump​


Bill Gates has revealed how he sat down for dinner with Donald Trump and came away 'impressed' with the President-elect.

The tech mogul and philanthropist recounted his extended sit-down meal with Trump and offered a rare glimpse into the private discussion with The Wall Street Journal.

The meeting saw Gates, Trump, incoming White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles, and a close confidante of Gates chat over a 'long and actually quite intriguing dinner.'


'So the four of us sat there, and it was quite wide-ranging,' Gates said, noting that much of the three-hour discussion was focused on global health, a cornerstone of Gates' philanthropic efforts.

'You know, global health is the area that I work in, and such amazing things have happened and can happen there.'

Gates elaborated on his efforts to combat HIV, revealing that his foundation is working on a cure for the virus.

'We're at an early stage,' he admitted, but he noted that Trump's role during the COVID-19 pandemic in accelerating vaccine development had given him hope.

'I was asking him if maybe the same kind of thing could be done here. And we both got, I think, pretty excited about that.'
