Bob Johnson, the founder of Black Entertainment Television (BET), says he is confident that President-elect Donald Trump will have a positive impact on the lives of African-Americans.

Johnson met with Trump in New Jersey on Sunday, and told CNN that he left the meeting “understanding that President Trump is committed to reaching out to African-Americans.”

A billionaire media magnate, Johnson supported Hillary Clinton’s failed White House run. During their meeting, Johnson offered Trump advice on how to connect with black voters.

Johnson encouraged Trump not to “say to black Americans, ‘What do you have to lose?’ Say to black Americans ‘What do you have to gain by a Trump presidency?’”
