Dallas Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban on Friday night, posed a question to his followers on X, which is currently a one-sided survey.
“Whose personality and character would you like to see in your children?” Cuban wrote in the two-way survey. Donald Trump And Kamala Harris,
Trump won with 68.9% of the vote, while Harris received only 31.1%. A total of 804,173 votes were received when voting ended.
The poll drew a number of responses from prominent political commentators and influencers on the platform. Valentina Gomez, the former Republican candidate for Missouri Secretary of State who lost earlier this month, was one of several high-visibility right-wing voices in the replies criticizing Harris's professional history.
The Cuban president has been a vocal critic of Trump since his first term. However, the billionaire sports magnate once sided with Trump.
Cuban has said he supported the former president when Trump launched his first presidential campaign in 2015.
Cuban elaborated on his initial support for Trump during an August 7 interview with Vivek Ramaswamy on X.
“In 2015, I thought, 'He's great. He's not a typical Stepford candidate.' I thought that was a positive thing,” Cuban said.
“A big reason for that is I didn't think he had a chance. I just wanted to make some mess of traditional politics, which I'm not a fan of.”
In an interview with Business Insider in July 2015, the “Shark Tank” host even said he would consider becoming Trump's running mate in the 2016 election.
In July 2015, Cuban wrote of Trump in a post on his social media app project “Cyberdust,” “I don't care what his actual position is.”
“I don't care if he says the wrong thing. He says what's on his mind. He gives honest answers rather than prepared answers. That's more important than anything any candidate has done over the years.”
Earlier this year, when Joe Biden was still the presumptive Democratic nominee, Cuban even said he would vote for Biden over Trump even if Biden was “being cremated.”
“If he was having a funeral, and it was him versus Trump, and he was being cremated, I would still vote for Joe Biden,” Cuban told Bloomberg News in March.
Ever since Harris became a potential nominee, Cuba has left no stone unturned in lending its support to her.
She defended her proposed economic agenda in a series of X posts on August 16 and even accused Trump of copying Harris' policy after the former president declared that his presidency would be “great for women's reproductive rights.”
“And now he's copying @KamalaHQ's policies. What's going on here?” Cuban wrote on X on Aug. 24.
