Black Entertainment Television founder and longtime Democrat Robert Johnson said in an interview that aired Tuesday that the Democratic Party has become too liberal to defeat President Trump in 2020, unless major changes are made.
“The party in my opinion, for me personally, has moved too far to the left,” Johnson told CNBC’s Hadley Gamble.
Johnson – the country’s first African-American billionaire, according to Forbes – went on to say that because the party has become so liberal, he isn’t supporting a particular 2020 candidate at this time.
“I think at the end of the day, if a Democrat is going to beat Trump, then that person, he or she, will have to move to the center and you can’t wait too long to do that,” Johnson said. “The message of some of the programs that Democrats are pushing are not resonating with the majority of the American people.”

This message needs to get out to everyone, no matter color. It's a true message.
Now, you can see just how whack the democrat candidates really are....
That dude didn't make a billion dollars giving shit away, I'm surprised he's not a Republican. I think it was Lincoln who said you don't help the poor by bringing down the rich. Democrats are stupid.
Perhaps Mr. Johnson should reconsider his support of the Democratic Party entirely, now that his eyes are at least partly opened.
Dear 8:48 ,
Mr. Johnson will go where the money is , period. We are still a capitalistic nation .
If he were truly going for Dem money, he'd pick a candidate. This is a sea change.
What he's saying is that his values are no longer the the Party's.
