He explained that his mother was an activist. She was a champion of reproductive rights which was a bit unusual for the 1960s and 70s. She would take him to rallies and that shaped him to who he is today. I can now see why this billionaire is the way he is. I'm sure, somewhere, there is a very proud mom shining down on him.
