Bill Gates offered some anecdotes involving President Trump

The remarks were recorded at a recent Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation meeting, where Gates took questions from staff ...

In one anecdote (Gates) said:
When I walked in, (Trump’s) first sentence kind of threw me off."

"Trump hears that you don’t like what Trump is doing."

And I thought, "Wow, but you’re Trump."

(Trump has a verbal tic of referring to himself in the third person)

And:
... it was ‘kind of scary’ how much Trump knew about what Gates’ daughter looked like.
