It is just the result of Nixon scooping up all of those southern
democrats in the 60s. Trump whipped them up and now it is going to
take a while for them to settle back down. Maybe Bill Gates shouldn't
have sold them computers ;-)


You know Bill Gates made a major investment in Pfizer at the start of the
crisis? Good call or inside knowledge?


Smart enough to know they would not lose. He was paying attention more
than the government.

He had a deservedly poor reputation for some of his business dealing but
he has been using his money now to do good in the world.
I don't agree with much of BG's liberal views but it's his money. He's another
one I put in the: Good for Thee, but not for me class. Just because he thinks
it's a good idea doesn't mean he has to impose it upon me or the rest of us.

Exactly what are these liberal views of Bill Gates that you object to? I haven't
seen him really involved in politics, backing any candidates, etc so I really
am curious what he's been up to that you have such issues with.
I have seen Gates doing a tremendous amount
of charity work, giving $45 bil away. How much and what percent of his net
worth has Trump given to charity? You;ll probably say he gave his $400K
salary to charity. So that's $1.6 mil from a shyster that claims to be worth $8 bil.
