According to the New York Times, Bill Gates who have been absent from politics for decades said privately that, he recently donated about $50m to Future Forward, a nonprofit organization that supports vice-president Kamala Harriss’s campaign. The donation was made in secret.
In private calls with friends and others this year, Gates expressed concern about the prospect of Donald Trump’s re-election as president, although he stressed he could work with any candidate, according to people familiar with the matter. But Gates praised the biden-Harriss administration for its work on climate change.
Moreover, Bill, Gates’s philanthropic arm, and the Melinda Gates Foundation are concerned that if Donald Trump is elected, funding for Planned Parenthood and global health programmes could be cut.
