Warren Buffett was a vocal backer of Hillary Clinton. She's not going to be the next president. So what does the Berkshire Hathaway CEO think of President-elect Donald Trump?

"I support any president of the United States. It's very important that the American people coalesce behind the president," Buffett told CNN's Poppy Harlow in an exclusive interview from Omaha on Thursday.
"That doesn't mean they can't criticize him or they can't disagree with what he's doing maybe. But we need a country unified," Buffett added.

"He deserves everybody's respect."

That's a turnaround from what Buffett told Berkshire Hathaway (BRKB) shareholders before its annual meeting in Omaha in April.
When an investor asked him if he'd be worried about how his businesses would perform under a President Trump, Buffett quipped "that won't be the main problem," a remark that issued laughter from the crowd.
