Billionaire businessman Mark Cuban recently laid out on his blog how he believes President-elect Donald Trump utilized the mainstream media to pull off a huge upset and win the election. Cuban added he was "dumb" for thinking he could convince people to not vote for the bombastic real-estate magnate.
In a post published earlier this month on Blog Maverick, Cuban said the Trump campaign was "a lot smarter and able to rally" mainstream media "haters" and turn them into Trump "believers and voters" in key states like Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and Michigan.

"We were the bad guys," he wrote. "We didn't get it. We represented everything they wanted to change. We were the forces behind the corrupt media. The elites. The establishment. The suckers getting paid off by George Soros and foreign corrupt interests."
"I was dumb enough to think I would be able to talk people out of voting for Donald Trump by detailing what I thought were his weaknesses," he continued. "The Trump campaign had to be laughing at me and thanking me at the same time. I approached my choice of candidates by consuming information literally. That was my hammer and I tried to use it to make everything else look like a nail. I obviously was wrong."

I thought that a few days ago Mark Cuban went to visit Trump.
No $#it $#erlock!
He added that the mainstream media simply doing its job would make Trump "stronger than he was the day he was elected."
A few days after the post was published, Cuban was spotted with Bannon in New York City. Cuban declined to comment on their meeting when asked by CNBC.
sorry Marc some of us are not dumb enough to go to the dark side as you are.
He was spotted talking to Steve Bannon, not Trump.
1) Admit you are stupid.
All you have to do is see the current Mavs team to know how dumb he is.
Yup. I have no problem with people who admit they were wrong about Trump and now want to help MAGA. Some former enemies can help defeat those that still are.
How patronizing, he tried his darnedest to drum some sense into us numbskulls.
Lotsa Americans are tired of being insulted and lectured by celebrities and billionaires who want a new world order. I for one want an America without Somalian jihadists on college campuses, or anywhere for that matter.
And P.S., I’ve never watched your stupid show.
The exact reason that a candidate like Trump was able to be elected. This was our last chance to save the Republic by vote. We had a choice between a globalist crook that would sell our country out and the bombastic egotistical patriotic showman....the ringmaster of the circus won hands down.
PLEASE... you obviously NEVER watched a Trump rally... I am fed up with the likes of you and your companions of holier than thou trashing Trump. Trump tore down the walls of PC speech and spoke to the heart of what ails this nation. He got bitched out from all points of the political spectrum that have NOT accomplished squat in stopping the marxist shove to the left. Trump was and is 'we the people', and he feared NOT to state the obvious.
Yep - "We wuz stoopid, but they wuz stoopider"....
Cuban..”I was Dumb”.....says it all!
Note to Mark Cuban.....Trump has it ...you don’t!!!!
There’s some financial gain he expects to get out of this election. He failed to get it the easy way, via Hillary. So now he’s trying for the hard way, plan B to get some laws passed to benefit himself, via Trump.
I approached my choice of candidates by consuming information literally.
He is this country's last chance but it does not make Trump any less Trump. If you can not tell already this will be a four year circus you have not been watching the press, the liberals or reading Trumps morning, afternoon or evening tweets(well worth signing up on twitter for, which is the reason I did)
I always try and look at the whole picture. You see a lot more coming your way then, you also see the pitfalls, not just your blinders on Trump won perspective. It is not you he needs to convince. Most people in the US do not see Trump as the Trump faithful do but they desperately want him to do what he said and save this country from the world order, save the economy, get rid of regulations and Obamacare and so on.
Being realistic and listening to what normal people are saying and sharing is not trashing Trump. I wish him the very best. Putting ones head in the sand on who he is and how he comes off leaves one in a position to be blindsided.
