"Bill Gates praises Donald Trump, another multibillionaire," Yuval Levental writes. "How shocking."

Summary: How Bill Gates shifts sides when it suits his financial agenda, this time with President-elect Trump
According to CNBC, Gates recently spoke with Trump, supposedly talking about innovation. Gates then claimed that Trump is a big supporter of innovation, saying that Trump would revolutionize America and get rid of regulatory barriers. He claimed that Trump likes to point out weaknesses in the American system and that he wants to improve on them.
Maybe he will even start an opportunistic partnership with Trump. Interesting Gates should claim this, when
in June 2016 he said "Donald hasn't been known for his philanthropy. He's been known for other things." Furthermore, Gates also implied that Trump was behind the other candidates.
He even portrayed Trump as unscientific,
stating "Science in general, whether it’s GMOs or vaccines, there’s a lot of people out there who don’t give science the benefit of the doubt". "In terms of experience, Hillary Clinton and Bill Clinton have more experience on global health."
Bill Gates has been innovative like many billionaires: he has created
a charitable foundation and still manages to profit in the billions every year, and Microsoft as a whole profits from monopolizing software.
