PITTSBURGH, Pa., July 30 - Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton toured the U.S. Rust Belt on Saturday, promising to reject bad international trade deals during a factory visit and securing the endorsement of investor Mark Cuban at a Pittsburgh rally.

The Dallas Mavericks owner, who said as recently as last month that there was a "good chance" he would vote for Donald Trump, instead criticized the Republican nominee's leadership in front of an energetic crowd.

"Leadership is not yelling and screaming and intimidating," Cuban said.

You know what we call a person like that in Pittsburgh? A jagoff!" Cuban added, using disparaging Pittsburgh slang.

Cuban had spoken with Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta several times in recent weeks and called him on Thursday to say he was ready to endorse Clinton, a campaign aide said.

Cuban endorses Hilliary, disses Trump, and I am not sure why his opinion matters so much that it makes the news.

Is Cuban that jealous of Trump’s success and guts? Yes.

Cause he's a billionaire and he likes liberal Democrats. And because he's young, he doesn't realize that its a good idea for prominent people to keep their political thoughts to themselves unless they are going to run for office.

I think a part owner of Twitter supports Trump, but that’s about all I can think of in the super wealthy category.

Clinton is triangulating and co-opting Trump’s positions. She is now targeting the blue-collar white working class voters. This is very good news for Trump. He is doing to her what Obama did to Romney in 2012.

Probably includes Cuban keeping Hillary’s America out of his Landmark Theater chain. He’s supported some liberal films in his Magnolia distribution company that are some of the lowest grossing films ever made.
