he is to connected to not know what Hillary is about. he made the calculated decision to support Hillary because he knew that if he wanted to make money during a Hillary presidency he had better of been a Hillary supporter. if he had felt Trump was going to win he would of been all in for Trump this is the type of guy we want to watch out for because he is totally in it for himself and has no real ethical framework.

Cuban’s not exactly someone to look to for advise on the nation. He kind of a goon who has made the American dream but only gives himself credit for it without appreciating the unique American principles that fosters prosperity. Anyone that supports Marxists is pretty anti-American.

Just because one is wealthy, does not necessarily mean that person has smarts or common sense.

Cuban did not earn his wealth like the others and Trump, he lucked into it. People who do not earn, lack skillsets.

I knew Trump had skillsets from the earliest days while people still have doubts. Read enough books and a Trump has the skills, fits the mold.

Cuban sold Yahoo before the market burst.

If he had brains, Yahoo would have been the new Google or Facebook or Apple or Microsoft. Instead it languishes.

Yeah, the media was so anti-Hillary and pro-Trump to Cuban. Even FOX Snooze was 24/7 anti-Trump.

Pray America woke

CUBAN: 'I was dumb enough to think I would be able to talk people out of voting for Donald Trump' Business Insider Allan Smith Business InsiderNovember 28, 2016 Mark CubanView photos Mark Cuban More (Mark Cuban.Justin Sullivan/Getty Images) 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. It came as a result of many people distrusting the mainstream media, Cuban said. "They not only distrust the MSM," he wrote. "They seem to feel strongly that the MSM is controlled by forces that are intentionally trying to discredit the things they believe strongly in." Trump repeatedly lambasted mainstream media outlets such as CNN and The New York Times at his raucous rallies, attempting to discredit much of their reporting as "dishonest." Cuban wrote that the media did its job and reported on what Trump said literally — but that it played right into the Trump campaign's hand. "President-elect Trump won not because the media failed at their job or didn't recognize something," wrote Cuban, the owner of the NBA's Dallas Mavericks and star of ABC's "Shark Tank." "Donald Trump won precisely because the MSM did their job exactly as they expected they would and they used it to their advantage."

He still doesn't get it. He is still a tool.

Yahoo would never be google.

Google is the big search dog because they have the best search algorithms. This was true even in their infancy before you ever heard of them. That’s why they’re where they are.

I’ll give him his props about one thing, He managed to talk me out of being a Mavericks fan. No more Mavs for me, of course he made it even easier by letting them deteriorate to the worst team in the NBA, but I’m done with them unless he sells the team.

I think was very honest and I commend him for admitting these things, he got it 100% right with his apology. He still thing Big T may have a bad temperament but he’s willing to give him a chance. That is all I want, if someone disagrees with Trump, fine, just let him prove you wrong.
