Traitors All

Bill Gates: I would vote for trump over Warren.

Anyone who has been conscious during one third of the last three years
and still supports dotard is a traitor.

There can be no excuse for supporting this piece of filth that has no one's
well being in mind but his own and putin's.

I would expect no less from the kochs, but gates is smarter than that and plays
a philanthropist on tv but, when the shit hits the fan, he goes with protecting his own.

respect for Gates. So, having billions to spend overseas is more important to him than protecting the citizens in the US? He has done lots of good things, but seems to have forgotten that "Charity begins at home" Surely he sees what a total disaster tRump is? Maybe we have been overestimating Gates, maybe he is not as smart as we thought.

Or at least we can say he is clever, not wise.

tRump is clever with other people's money and manipulating media. He is not wise.

paying your fair share of taxes on your taxes. He can write off all of his showy philanthropy, and everyone will think he's a great guy because of it. There's no pat on the back for paying more in taxes so others can have basic human rights!

I remember when he accelerated the Zika virus by releasing a super mosquito that was supposed to not be able to procreate, the problem being it didn't work, or did it?

IBM originally had selected Digital Research Inc. as the operating system provider for their new home systems. If they had gone with DR, that would have made CP/M their default operating. Unfortunately DR never returned IBM's call and they decided to go with this little known start up called DOS instead. Gates rode IBMs' marketing coattails until he made enough money to go off on his own. ALL his so-called genius was originally from the Xerox Park research facility where all the concepts for Windows were worked out and paid for by Xerox. So f*ck you Bill Gates. You're just a lucky bastard who was in the right place at the right time.

And now to add insult to injury you're a Trumper!

But he also implied that he’d probably vote for Warren over Trump, saying that he’d cast a ballot for whichever candidate was “more professional,” even if he disagreed with that person’s views.
