The tycoon Mark Cuban rejected the invitation of Kamala Harris to be his partner in the running
Mark Cuban does not like being number two in the projects he undertakes and that is why he decided not to accompany Kamala Harris on the ticket
Mark Cuban, whose fortune is around $5.7 billion dollars, claims to have rejected an invitation from Democrat Kamala Harris to accompany her as her partner in the running.
During his participation in the podcast "The Bulwark", the Pittsburgh businessman revealed that, last year, Democratic Party staff contacted him to request research materials as they were interested in adding him to the presidential campaign. However, he immediately dismissed the offer, considering it a waste of time.
“My response was that I’m not very good as a number two,” he stated bluntly.
Likewise, the 66-year-old billionaire also clarified that his personality is very different from the one the Democrats had identified in Tim Walz, the character who ended up being assigned the mission of supporting Kamala Harris with the aim of becoming vice president of the nation after the elections.
“I’m not very good at shaking hands or kissing babies. My personality is completely different from Tim’s. My experiences, my origins are completely different. I think I’ve faced problems more directly. I’m not a politician. So it would have been different, but it would have been horrible,” he stressed.
Last year, Cuban unexpectedly decided to completely turn his back on the Republicans and announced his full support for Joe Biden.
“If they had their last wake, and If it were him against Trump, and they gave him the last rites, he would still vote for Joe Biden,” he said. However, when the former president decided to give up his re-election aspirations, the Pennsylvania billionaire no longer supported Kamala Harris, despite continuing to be linked to the Democrats, as he seemed to resent Donald Trump. Jokingly, Mark Cuban assumed that “Harris would probably have fired him in six days,” if he had agreed to accompany her to the polls, but especially if the African American had materialized her enormous power to raise $1,$1 billion in donations for a campaign that squandered all of these resources only to be overwhelmed by Donald Trump at the ballot.
