Yes! This is what's wrong with so much of billionaire philanthropy.
If something is genuinely worth our doing as a society, we should do so through the actions of our government, not the whims of an unaccountable, publicity-seeking billionaire.

Caution: pedantry ahead.
I think that's Fraktur, a typeface still in use in German speaking countries in the first half of the 20th century. Hitler disliked it, and the Nazis replaced it with the chunkier Antiqua font in 1941.
So, evocative, but also inaccurate. Par for Trump Deux.

I’ve voted 7 times to reopen the government in a way that holds Trump accountable for his lawlessness and prevents a health care crisis.
I’m prepared to work toward a compromise, but this “deal” before us does not come close to meeting those terms. Voting NO.
