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.

“...instead criticized the Republican nominee’s leadership in front of an energetic crowd”

-—What’s missing is the fact that it was a small crowd

It’s getting easier to tell who the real America haters are in this country. They all are lining up to shoot off their big commie mouths to the “media” toads by endorsing the Clintoons.

“It tells you all you need to know just how much of a loser Trump and how much many of you have sold your soul to the devil to support a fake Republican as your candidate.”

So are you saying your “with her”? Or are you voting for the stoner Libertarian?

I’ll assume that Cruz was your guy as he was mine.

Do you think Cuban or even Koch would be backing Cruz at this point had he been the Republican Nominee?

They are both Open Borders supporters.
Cuban is a Liberal and Koch is a Libertarian.

BTW - Cruz alone is responsible for the demise of his Campaign. I stuck with his as long as I could as many others here did.

Blaming Trump for the BLM and Bernie Rioters outside his cancelled Rally and then embracing Glen Beck were the turning points for me.

Don’t support the Republican Nominee Trump, you support the Queen of Evil and with her the end of the Republic.

He's from Mount Lebanon, a wealthy suburb several miles southwest of the South Hills, which is 100% not in The 'Burgh.

Let’s see, Billionaire Fake Yinzer endorses MultiMillionaire Fake Historic Candidate infront of audience of (minimum wage paid) college kids, (under duress) Union members, and those trying to get out of the thunderstorms.

Sounds very democratic to me.

Cuban, like Trump, had some family $$$ to “help” them start their empires. Nothing wrong with that. I just hope Cuban didn’t present himself as “dahn wit da struggle” Yinzer because that just ain’t so! When his family lived in the AREA, they lived in super upscale Mt. Lebanon.

Jagoff? Probably had an aide find that nugget.

Most of the REALLY rich good old boys are coming out to “endorse” the Clintstones. Probably just a coincidence. When you’re filthy rich, you always need to make the little people think that you really care about them. Rich Guilt.
