BET Founder: I Told Trump to Tell Blacks ‘What Do You Have to Gain’ in a Trump Presidency

JOHNSON: "I came away from that meeting understanding that President Trump is committed to reaching out to African-Americans in a way that I expressed to him when I said, you know, President-elect Trump, don't say to black Americans what do you have to lose? Say to black Americans, what do you have to gain by a Trump presidency? And in the course of my conversation with him, we talked about a number of issues if implemented by President Trump and his administration will demonstrate that African-Americans have something to gain by establishing a common ground with the -- with President- elect Trump and his administration."
