San Francisco: Microsoft Co-founder and billionaire Bill Gates, who reportedly gave $50 million to one of the political campaigns of US Vice-President Kamala Harris, on Friday congratulated President-elect Donald Trump.
In a post on X social media platform, Gates congratulated Trump and VP-elect JD Vance.
“America is at its strongest when we use ingenuity and innovation to improve lives here in the US and around the world. I hope we can work together now to build a brighter future for everyone,” said Gates.
Melinda Gates, the ex-wife of Bill Gates, had also backed Harris. “I feel like Kamala, I was happy to endorse. I’ve worked with her before, she knows what we need in society and she’s using her voice against those issues already on the campaign trail, and I knew she would,” Melinda Gates said on a CBS show in July.
