Mark Cuban plans to run as a Republican if he runs for president, since he can’t win as a Democrat with that “DSA S***.” He has no chance of becoming president. During a recent interview, he came out in support of James Talarico, who is running for the US Senate in Texas.
Cuban admitted that Democratic California is insane politically, but followed it up by saying he wants radical Democrat James Talarico to win in Texas.
That way, Talarico could do for the nation what Democrats did for California.
Cuban is oblivious as to what Republicans did for Texas.
Western Lensman writes:
Mark Cuban: Taxes in California are insane. The billionaire tax is ridiculous. You’re driving out companies. You’re cutting off your nose to spite your face.
Mark Cuban, minutes later in the same interview: Vote for Talarico. Do what’s best for Texas and your wallet. What have Republicans ever done for you? This can officially put to bed any misguided ideas that Mark had a political epiphany after his dust-up with Ro Khanna.
Absolutely incredible…
Mark Cuban: “California is run terribly. The taxes are insane. That’s why people keep moving to Texas.”

He didn’t sound any more intelligent in his other responses on X.
I see those goalposts moving.
Different circumstances. Senators can propose legislation. They can’t unilaterally get them passed.
The bigger problem is that too many people want to pull a lever and vote for just one party.
That makes no sense to me.
