BET Network Founder, Bob Johnson Praises Trump

Bob Johnson, the founder of BET publicly praised President Trump - grading him an A+ for his performance so far.

"I think the economy is doing great, and it's reaching populations that heretofore had very bad problems in terms of jobs and employment and the opportunities that come with employment … so African-American unemployment is at its lowest level," he told CNBC.

"I give the president a lot of credit for moving the economy in a positive direction that's benefiting a large amount of Americans," he said. "I think the tax cuts clearly helped stimulate the economy. I think business people have more confidence in the way the economy is going."

Johnson added: "Overall, if you look at the U.S. economy … you got to give the president an A+ for that."

Johnson owned BET until it was acquired by Viacom back in 2001.

Would y 'all give Trump an A+?

Comment by Harry Toddler on July 12, 2019 at 2:06pm: Am curious , how many of you are willing to watch your kids starve to death ? who is comfortable watching your spouse or child work 40 hrs a week for a $50 ( gross) paycheck ? If you think the system in the states is bad , pack up and move to a country that is predominantly black ppl and tell me how you like it . No-one have to sell their soul to be financially rich , you just have to start a business that will benefit no matter who's in office , Or one that can weather the storm when your party hasn't been elected. I see these bodegas , chinese restaurants , landscapers , plumbers,electricians , make hella money and its mostly all cash . WAKE up my ppl stop worry about whos in office and worry about the money in your pocket . Funny America opress countries like venezuela and the middle east so we here in the states can have a better way of living than most of the world but no-one is complaining that they can have unlimited internet access for less than $50 a month ( see above) etc. not to mention the ppl on welfare that get free food, free medicine , free car insurance , free cell phone ,free allowance for clothe,free appliance for their apartments just to mention a few things.

Comment by Harry Toddler on July 11, 2019 at 1:22pm: When are you guys going to get it , when you vote , you vote for your pocket , republicans cut taxes for certain businesses in certain industries , the demd do the same as well as hand out welfare for those who don't want to move fwd. Everyone is focussing on the the man himself who is insignificant in the grand scheme of things . BET is a business , you think they are going to praise a president who takes money out of their pocket or one that afford them greater wealth ?
