Mark Cuban Recalls The Conversation That Made Him See The Truth About Trump
HuffPost
The fellow billionaire shared on "The Daily Show" that he learned everything he needed to know about Trump "the third time" he talked to him.
Mark Cuban vividly remembers the moment he realized that Donald Trump was a fraud.
The former president naturally came up on Monday’s episode of “The Daily Show” as Cuban, a billionaire businessman and former reality TV star himself, used to have long conversations with Trump over the phone — but publicly distanced himself in 2016.
Jon Stewart graciously suggested the Republican presidential nominee initially appealed to Cuban as an “outsider” by decrying the “status quo” and corporate capture of Washington, D.C., before asking when Cuban finally realized Trump merely wanted “the deed to the swamp” — rather than drain it.
“About the third time I talked to him,” Cuban told Stewart. “He wasn’t about changing.”
“We were talking about this one debate for CNBC that he wasn’t going to be at,” he added, “and … I’m like, ‘Donald, why don’t you go to a local small business and sit there at the table and just show off your business chops? Just show people you’re a businessman.’”
