BET Founder Robert Johnson On President Donald Trump's Economy | CNBC
This guy went to Princeton, says he is smarter than Kudlow, has tons of life experience, and the panel thinks they are going to patronize him? RJ handled this easily. Smooth. I think it's clear, he's levels above the panel.
White liberals don't know what to do with a level-headed, rational, unemotional black person.
Sharayah Gant that’s because they are the true racists
TrueBag,
You gottit. I've known member of his family, visited one of his companies in Chicago, and my experience backs you 100%+++.
'Course the Trump economy is only starting to exist about now. Up to now it's still the Yellen-Obama proposition still coasting forward.
David Lloyd-Jones LOL! Obama’s GDP growth for 8 years is only 1.6%! The worst since after WW2.
They're that way towards any level-headed, rational person regardless of color. If that person is white then they're racist, if they're any color other than white then they look down on them while struggling to grasp the moral high ground they just fell off of.
Wtf did I just watch? This successful black businessman is being looked down because he supports Trump and why was Charlottesville brought up for no reason? Wtf what am I watching this is disgusting media at it's best. These $50k salary fools trying to tell this rich black man who he should choose to talk to lol
Because that’s how they want Trump painted.He is a threat to their power and control.Enemy of the deep state.
Its never for no reason young man.
They don't like that he's not on the plantation.
Free Ma TDS is the reason. We all know lol.👍🇺🇸
Rights Champ Why would you care so much what some random person on the internet says about you in the first place? lol.
This is crazy, Mr Johnson is talking facts... and like always the left keeps resorting to emotions. I am so glad I got off the Democratic plantation.
I left the DEMS around 2016 :-)
Barney Perez congrats !! 🎊
I agree with you 100%
Robert Johnson😎😎👍👍👍
The young guys head is going to explode!!😂😂😂😂
SYE M. AMEN SO HAPPY U DID
😁😁😁
Puerto Ricans Loves President Donald J Trump.
Ironically, I didn’t like Trump till the Man announced his candidacy for USA presidency.
TRUMP 2025
Seems like they are baiting him! They want him so badly to dis Trump! Lol. But didn't happen
Stephanie Gorski I am not Trump supporter, but the economy has improved by decreasing regulations, these interviewers tried to bait this gentleman but failed miserably. Hats off to Robert Johnson.
Ernesto Porras-Polo
You seem like and open minded person. Perhaps by 2020 you will change your mind about President Trump and support him.
I think the older guy seemed reasonable with the interview. The younger guy just has a vendetta to get Trump. RLJ has a very reasonable point of view.
I'm pretty sure the young man was the problem. The other two were fine. The interview would have gone smoothly without the young man.
They think they've got the edge on the IQ front. So wrong!
AHAHAHA yall got roasted on your own show by my man RJ
As a supporter of the POTUS I do not like when interviewers get emotional when the person being interviewed say they like, support, or would work with Trump. So unprofessional
Robert Johnson is such a smart man, however the man sitting next to him is missing a few brain cells.
he just couldn't handle it! lol
He was so triggered, it was hilarious
True story
The guy sitting next to him was a true snowflake.
He kept trying to bring in the social aspects. That's OK but the end game is business and money.
“It’s easier to go with the flow”??!! Did he seriously say that ? How is this guy in tv? If you think about it, you could easily pull that “racist” card on him.
I thought the same thing too! "It's easier to go with the flow?" What? Like a sheep? CNBC is unbelievable. What a terrible network!
How eye opening was that last statement from the liberal "journalist". "It would be so much easier for you if you would just go with the flow". In other words don't think for yourself. Wow!
Thanks for the economy Trump! #MAGA
mckay Smith MAGA!
Ouch! This kid of a panelist wants to put a business man like Robert Johnson against the wall with racist card and business credibility? Johnson did Mortal Kombat Finish with this kid.
Johnson says "everythin is so toxic" nobody pays attention to the good things.
Finally! It feels so good to finally have a President that actually cares about the USA and its people! #Blacks4Trump
Al Robins , you're a fool
TenaciousC “a fool”? Trump obviously cares about your middle class! We can see that from Switzerland! Obama was the big-wig bankers boy! Obama dropped bombs! Sadly, Obama’s legacy is dropping bombs.
Al Robins, you are no fool! And I am gladly a Black for Trump!
LATINOS FOR TRUMP 2020
@@robertpinkney8457 Because you can pass econ 101 lol
Loved the guy!
Great job Mr. Johnson, you didn't compromise your beliefs, nor did you allow them to bully you; buying into their dogma ("it would be easier to just go with the flow")and accurately describing all the good, positive things that President Trump has done for all Americans. No wonder you are so successful. I will be watching more videos of you Mr. Johnson, love your spirit!
Trump 2020.
trudginon
Do you still feel with more than 50,000 deaths with the Coronavirus pandemic that Donald Trump should be re-elected in 2020?
Gotta love what Trump is doing. I cant wait to vote for him again in 2020 MAGA
Me neither and surprise! I'm a black woman no less
I love this guy. I'll vote for him in a heartbeat!
Look at the body language of the guy next to RJ. He’s really struggling with the fact that RJ isn’t speaking ill of Trump lol
Robert Johnson is legit.
Black people love Trump, low key
And some people think media is objective and unbiased. LOL
12:53 ''It would be easier just to go with the flow''
Robert Johnson is a true intelligent leader! 👏🏿🇺🇸
I started watching this show regularly because I was getting tired of fox and friends saying Trump could do no wrong and couldn’t take CNN and MSNBC constantly saying Trump could do no right. This show is coming from the New York stock exchange I believe and they focus more on the business side of Trumps presidency and the impact his decisions and policy’s have on our economy and not as much on his tweets and some of the dingaling things he says. It seems the guy on the right at least gives Trump a fair shake but the guy on the “left” appropriately seems to hate his guts.
I love this guy he gives me so much inspiration to be a successful black man.
Who is this guy seeing on Twitter? I see mostly optimism in social media about where we are headed. It’s like he won’t accept that Johnson won’t talk bad about trump and throwing hypotheticals just to say he doesn’t like him. This is why I hate CNBC and why they’re so freaking unpopular!
the host figured the darker the skin the more dislike for the president. ridiculous litmus test lol
Leftists on Twitter block anyone who disagree with them, use block lists, and even block people who follow someone else they have blocked, so they don't see much outside of their little bubble, lol
It’s easier to just “go with the flow” than to tell the people the truth? I can’t even believe that was just said.
9:55 - The kid next to Johnson goes full West World Mode - Shut Down!!! lol
Robert Johnson handled those liberals like a boss.
Glad I saw this video, you get to see Mr. Johnson as a great business man. I wish all interviewers showed both sides. One interviewer was fair and let the guest explain his thoughts and why he has gone down the life directions he has. The other interviewer showed how he had so many biases that hopefully Mr. Johnson put to rest. I myself, learned of some of my biases that I had due to the lack of knowledge of Mr. Johnson. Thank You
Loved the way he smiled every time he realized they were trying to bait him into dissing Trump.
10:31 - Still has not moved >>LMFAO!! You can see guy on is like wth. The sweeping camera angles stop from this point on!! LOL
Robert Johnson is an amazing guy. He is exactly what America needs a lot more of.
I’m in the Green party and own two small businesses! An art restoration, and a contractor Company. My Business taxes under Obama were 28% and under Trump they are 15%! Trump is saving small businesses from collapsing! He is without a doubt getting my vote 2020! I am as surprised as any other person in the Green party that Trump is an awesome president. When he first took office so I thought; “OMG! We have a game show host as President!” With peace in the Korean Peninsula, start up business survival ratings hitting a two-year record, and small business taxes cut in half. He may be the best president in history for small and medium size businesses.
Thank you Mr. Johnson for standing up for our people with two great proposals.
"Go with the flow". Sounds like a nice guy.
lolll at 6:40 they are like uh oh not the right narrative.. spin spin spin spin!
Excellent!...
I would totally vote for this guy. Anthony, thank you for posting this and your observations. You rock man.
Love this guys! ✌🏻❤️🇺🇸
I hope Robert Johnson gets appointed to the cabinet, he's got fantastic ideas.
Joe Kernen is the CNBC anchor’s name. Dude is solid - use to watch him everyday.
"40%-50% of the people in this country...when I read Twitter and Stuff...they're not sure they're going to survive the year" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
They don't let him finish his point. That's so annoying.
The older host is trolling the angry young host by egging him on to get educated like a father getting a successful guest at the dinner table to talk some sense to an angry and misguided son.
Love this man! A true American!
This was fun to watch especially the angry white guy.
“ when I read Twitter and stuff” awesome analysis, schmuck
Mr. Johnson is a BOSS.
Watching 8/30/20, boy he sure has changed his tune!
So unfair to have Mr. Johnson there talking to these weak people.
The young dude is stunned. Is he contemplating a red pill...
One wise man, thank you Mr Johnson.
LoL little soy boy got choked up with emotions lol!!
Truth!!
He makes a very good point. Let's work on discussing solutions to the economy and set aside what we may or may not dislike about the president. Good talk.
just catching this now, I do not have cable or watch MSM . Hats off to Robert Johnson . CNBC . Crap . dividing . All MSM is dividing ....
In business as in life, you go with facts and figures .TRUST is for kids to parents.
Bob handled them with class.
I like bet now
wow
This is Good for the sport.
This is the type of man we need as a leader!
Man i should have voted for Trump. It doesn't do much though cause I'm living in commie Ca.
Not too late to vote for Trump next time. Also, don't give up on CA.
most honest interview
Imagine telling a billionaire businessman that "it'd be easier to go with the flow....."
They really think Mr. Johnson is stupid. SMH
Not gonna lie midway into this interview the whole crew with an exception to the white chick just flat out dropped the ball...
So this was 7 months ago. How are you all feeling now???
"Look guys! We found one!"
ArcaneErudition That's a racist comment. He's far from the only smart and wealthy black man in the United States.
...Except I wasn't making the point that he's wealthy and smart.
Robert Johnson is making a point about 401k cashouts at 6:20 , he gets interrupted with some nonsensical garbage about "would you make a deal with Trump, etc" and finally gets to finish his thought at 9:30. This is outrageous "journalism".
Bob and the other man on the other end are grown adults having productive conversation. The kid next to him sad to say is part of my generation emotionally unstable. He's so stuck in his perspective bubble that he doesn't get what Bob is saying essentially "You gotta take the good with the Bad". But the kid is so offended to hear that Trump is actually getting things done
I just heard some economists on another program saying companies are not reinvesting the tax windfall. Think Apple was an example I think. Bought back multi thousands of stock which does not help shareholders according to panel.
A sane guy on the news. Impossible.
#WALKAWAY
Wow!! you can see the meltdown on their faces was priceless...
Bob Johnson is a great asset to our country.
RJ gets it...prosperity over poverty
Can we get some hard numbers on these companies who are reinventing in employees and new workers..... job growth continues to decline more and more since this tax cut
ODOTTV , I can't answer for other states, but South Carolina is booming. We can't find enough people to fill positions.

"It would be easier to go with the flow." What lemmings.
This is a perfect example of a person with unshakeable values and steadfast resolve. That, along with his abilities to master his emotions, rises head and shoulders above the belief system of even the loftiest of liberal demagogues. Study this mindset and you'll learn the philosophy of becoming successful and moving into a life of significance. "Go with the flow" and you always stay where you are wondering why he gets to be a billionaire and why it's not fair.
Never seen an interview backfired like this one......wow! This CNBC panel is talkimg about racism? How racist it is to TRY to patronize a genius that happens to be black. MAGA
Seems like this interview didn't workout as the network hoped
Asking questions potentially impactful to the guests business; how original.
It's amazing how quick they turn when you don't agree with their narrative! This man has a mind and they do not like it.
Awesome. Mr. Johnson schooled him some CNBC assclowns. Love it.
Asking you straight up. Do you feel teachers are safe going back to school? Does the science mean anything to you? Straight up?
Money doesn’t care about your feelings.
Go with the flow? Did the talking media head just recommend that Mr. Johnson act like a coward.
This was an interesting interview. I am Hispanic and did not vote for Trump but I also did not vote for Obama. I vote independent but it is important to note, that many minorities do not have a particular problem with Trump. We know he is not a racist, he has helped minorities throughout his businesses, and he has not done anything that Clinton hasn't already done so all this hysteria is stupid. The problem is really the media (at this point, this is over obvious) which has successfully divided everyone. I no longer watch the main stream media - only local news and the odd video on UA-cam, like this one.
People can learn from this smart and successful man - chill out, work with the government we have to help our communities, and move on from the hysteria. Good job, Mr. Johnson.
This should be a lesson to Republicans if you want to get the black vote then increase black wealth and incomes. Once black people experience taxable income they will become more conscious of increase tax proposals and they will stop voting democrat.
I would have turned it off because the Trump hater reporter but this gentleman guest is brilliant.
Let the man talk!
Well that went off script quick
Latinos for Donald J Trump these haters 2020
Talk about putting them in their place. Rats the lot of them!
I give Mr Johnson a lot of credit and not falling to these so-called hosts, take your feelings off the air, you are embarrassing yourself
The Brown American unemployment rates is low because many people are not being tracked anymore.
Looks like these so called journalist are fighting to hold back their true feelings. I bet they wish they could call him all kinds of names.
The media who ironically is supposed to be unbiased and deliver news in a fair manner to its audience are rather biased and getting checked by the fair audience.
