Last week, Cuban ripped Donald Trump apart on the app but now he’s singing a new tune, praising Trump while calling him “the best thing to happen to politics in a long, long time.”
“I don’t care what his actual positions are,” Cuban wrote. “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. This is more important than anything any candidate has done in years.
“Up until Trump announced his candidacy, the conventional wisdom was that you had to be a professional politician in order to run. You had to have a background that was politically scrubbed. In other words, smart people who didn’t live perfect lives could never run. Smart people who didn’t want their families put under the media spotlight wouldn’t run. The Donald is changing all of that. He has changed the game and for that he deserves a lot of credit. Now maybe we will accept candidates warts and all and look at what they can do rather than what headlines they create. Congrats Donald.”
Cuban didn’t endorse Trump at all, but he did say that he was quickly changing the face of politics.
Trump says he’s a Dallas Mavericks fan now as well:
