In a meeting with Bill Gates, President Donald Trump asked the Microsoft founder and philanthropist to explain if there is a difference between HIV and HPV more than once, according to video obtained by MSNBC.
Why it matters: Gates is one of the most prominent advocates for vaccines and curing diseases across the globe. It's noteworthy that Trump didn't know there was a difference between two very different sexually transmitted diseases.
More from the footage of Gates:
He said he "avoided" then-candidate Trump prior to the election when they were in the same place, and it was "scary how much he knew about my daughter's appearance."
He also said that Trump was at an event in Florida, was speaking to Gates' daughter "and was being super nice, and then about 20 minutes later he flew in in a helicopter to the same place. So clearly he...wanted to make a grand entrance."
