Billionaire Mark Cuban turned down a chance to be Kamala Harris’s running mate last year. He confirmed her campaign invited him to submit vetting papers for vice president. Cuban said he wouldn’t make a good second-in-command.
The Shark Tank star admitted he’s terrible at playing number two. He joked about telling the president “that’s a dumb idea.” Cuban also hates shaking hands and kissing babies like politicians do.
Harris’s team still wanted him on their shortlist. Cuban declined because his vetting would take too long. He hinted there might be too much to uncover in his background.
Other candidates included Minnesota governor Tim Walz. Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro and Senator Mark Kelly were also considered. Harris picked Walz in the end.
Cuban stayed a loud supporter for Harris anyway. He often fought Trump fans online. The billionaire appeared on TV to back her campaign.
Democrats keep choosing coastal elites over real Americans. This rejection shows their desperate scramble for celebrity appeal. Regular folks see right through these gimmicks.
Trump crushed Harris in 2024 with 312 electoral votes. Cuban wouldn’t have changed that outcome. The Democrats’ radical policies doomed them regardless of the VP pick.
This whole episode reveals the left’s terrible judgment. Patriots know true leaders come from the people, not billionaire celebrities. America rejected that failed agenda decisively.
