Gates is partly making the change to spend more on health initiatives at a time when AI and biotech could vastly change medicine. There’s another obvious reason: It’s an obvious indictment of Trump and the person who has been Trump’s left-hand man, Elon Musk. The recent Musk-led cuts to U.S. foreign aid amount to murder, Gates said in an interview with The New York Times about the foundation’s future. And, no, I’m not grossly misparaphrasing him, who told the Times this: “The world’s richest man has been involved in the deaths of the world’s poorest children.” To combat Trump, Gates might’ve just cut the Democrats a big fat check. But political giving has never been his style, and why change now? The party is in clear disarray. Yet he is very much combating Trump in his decision to spend so much more in the coming years—doling out the funds directly to the on-the-ground efforts that matter most to him and to fill holes in support created by Trump. The billionaires who also want to fight against Trump might try Gates’ approach rather than entrusting their money to rudderless politicians.
