Melinda Gates openly condemned the Trump administration's response to the coronavirus pandemic, saying that a lack of leadership at the national level has led to 'chaos' across the board. The billionaire philanthropist, who co-chairs the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation along with her Microsoft co-founder husband, did not mince words when asked to weigh in on America's handling of the global health crisis in an interview with Today Show's Savannah Guthrie on Friday. 'I'm both surprised we weren’t better prepared, but quite honestly I’m surprised we’ve wasted so much time. That we haven’t had leadership at the national level

If Melinda wasn't married to Bill Gates it would be "Melinda who?" It is still "Melinda who?" They both need to shut up.

She (if she really is a she) must be worried that Trump isn't buying into their mandatory vaccine with microchips and ID papers program.

This person is openly badmouthing our nation's leadership and fomenting unrest in a populace already agitated from some 2 months of quarantine, and its husband, who is compromised through his association with Jeffrey Epstein (who did not kill himself and might not even be dead), is a principal in a company that makes software used by most every US government agency, including our defense apparatus. I care what it has to say because these opinions most likely mirror those of the globalist husband.

I'm extremely tired of Bill and Melinda basking in the glow of adulation without adding anything to the discussion. I don't care for Elon Musk but right now what he's doing is far more constructive and far more helpful to the country.

New DNC/Obama talking points have been released. Obama says "chaotic disaster," the masculine half of the Gates Foundation's leadership says "what's happening is chaos." All these people want is a one-government solution, the more global the better. They've become so embedded in group-think they no longer understand the overwhelming strength of diverse ideas and opinions. Theirs is the road to extinction.

Melinda is the one who pushed Common Core in public schools. How did that work our, Melinda? Just use your money for the good not to push your Sociaiist agenda. It never ceases to amaze me how much the wealthy people love Communism. I guess money is not enough; they want power.

Another like Michelle Obama, the wife of "the guy". Like "the guy"'s capabilities transferred somehow to the wife?
This is a classic misunderstanding about leadership. Fools think it is the position that endows leadership. The "boss" tells people what to do by attribute of BEING the boss. If THEY were only in Bill Gates' position, they would have been just as successful.
Real leadership is a fusion of temperament, education, and experience and they guide people through their learned abilities and their talent to respect and utilize the skills of others.
Simply slipping someone into the position of president doesn't imbue them will the ability to actually BE president. Sitting next to Bill Gates doesn't give Melinda the abilities to understand the issues of running a company or the Country.
Tell you what Bill and Melinda, when you actually manage to get kids' educational competency up instead of dragging them down with Common Core stupidity, come back and talk with us. Right now, your "success" isn't all that impressive.

I would be interested in what Melinda Gates plan of action would have been in preparing for this unknown virus before it came to our shores. If you knew so much why didn't you step forward sooner Melinda? Hmm....?? just wanted to get your billion cents in like all the libs, huh?

Easy to bad mouth the Gates who have their own vision. The truth of the matter is that President Trump in a way has overmanaged the entire affair. If he could have gotten a fair presentation by the MSM which is so evil and untrustworthy, I truly believe he could have gotten a lot more good things done that they simply made impossible.

So says the woman who has sickened who knows how many hundreds of third world kids by pushing her noxious vaccine program. All while refusing to have her own kids vaccinated. She is an even bigger liberal than Bill is, and she and Bill need to stick to their software company and fix that before trying to boss the rest of us around. Maybe if Bill would stop using poor quality employees from India to create his software, he wouldn't need the patches after each release. Gates gets what he pays for, which sure isn't saying much for his product.

Some pertinent questions for Melinda would involve the pet charity of her and husband Bill, the World Health Organization. If the WHO were doing their job in late 2019, much of this global pandemic could have been stopped or greatly lessened. Instead, the WHO led by Gates favorite Tedros was busy covering for the Chinese Communists.
What have you said about that, Melinda?

As crazy as Lady Macbeth in that Scottish play. Hey Melinda do you think Elena Ceaușescu ever imagined she would go on trial? Why isn't the wife of one of the richest men on the planet happy? How twisted can someone be who has more money than they can handle and instead of doing something honorable with it, whines for more money and more 'power?' What a horrible hag.

I’ve liked the posters on previous threads that Gates couldn’t even fix viruses on his computers so how is he an expert on this.

Not willing to unblock ads to read about Melinda. She has the same talking points as Obola. If they have something to do with the vaccine, I don't want one. Nobody in India does either.
Anybody remember how Melinda met Bill ? She won the contest. He couldn't find a date.

When does someone mention the total incompetence of the CDC, whose faulty tests and refusal to let private enterprises help cost us a month of response? And the FDA, whose bureaucratic red tape causes useless and wastes manpower as companies rush to cure this disease?

She hasn’t aged well...but at least she hasn’t screwed up her face with plastic surgery. That’s all I can give her. Otherwise, just shut up woman who married a rich guy. Geez...what is it with these people? Might want to keep yourself busy with wedding plans for your eldest brat daughter (who is an ‘equestrian’ and sadly looks like her daddy), and who is engaged to an Egyptian Muslim guy. How very chi-chi and NWO! Stiffle it—you don’t matter, Mel.

She is aiming at the wrong target as it has been the so-called mainstream liberal media that has been attempting to cause chaos and panic throughout the nation’s population for political purposes. The biggest joke of all, so far, by the fake news media is that President Trump should have had 330 million accurate and complex medical diagnostic tests up and running for the previously unknown Chinese COVID-19 virus so that every American could be tested as soon as the virus was imported to America something that was scientifically impossible. Then the fake news media went on to panic the public into buying and hoarding up to a three years supply of toilet paper, that was completely unnecessary causing a big temporary toilet paper shortage at the retail level. The media has now moved on to attempting to cause a meat panic, because certain meat processing plants have temporarily suspended their operations. Clearly the current mantra for the Democrats and their fake media propagandists is to try to keep the nation’s economy shutdown for as long as possible, as the Democrat politicians continue to hide in their basements with the media still having their high paying jobs, thinking that such a shutdown will cause Trump to loose the general election in November. To the media it is all political.

What a strange thing to be upset about -- the existence of chaos in a government that rules 300 million people. Chaos. It so offends the sensibility of those who would use government tell you how to live, when to live, where to live and why to live.

For someone so rich she certainly doesn’t pay attention to the revelation of the shape Obama left us in. Considering the easy transmission of this virus, I’m not sure if any country could’ve been completely prepared - China certainly wasn’t, and they made it!

Interesting what rises to the top in the cesspool of lefty politics. Wouldn't have guessed Melinda Gates. Is Bill Gates hiding behind her? Sending her out to take the shots that would hit him? Pathetic man.
