Mark Cuban hit back at pro-Trump influencer Gad Saad this week after the Canadian marketing professor posted to X a mock conversation with a “progressive” about support for Donald Trump.
Gaad’s conversation began:
Me: Why do you hate Trump?
Progressive: He is a threat to democracy.
Me: How?
Progressive: He has yet to relinquish power.
Me: Really? He’s still occupying the White House?
Progressive: No, but he’s not conceded.
Me: Has Hillary not repeatedly stated that Trump was an illegitimate president?
Progressive: Well yes, but she said the word “conceded.”
Me: What else do you not like about him?
Progressive: He is an existential threat.
Saad ended his lengthy post by claiming that the “progressive” would eventually get cornered by having to defend Biden and claim, “It’s impossible to converse with you. You are a right-wing extremist.”
Cuban, the billionaire businessman and Shark Tank personality, has taken to X in recent months and engaged with pro-Trump figures in good-faith conversations on topics ranging from DEI to Trump’s finances.
Cuban replied to Gaad’s tweet and wrote out his own mock conversation:
Me: He ripped off thousands of hard working Americans with Trump University, he put vendors out of business and didn’t pay his bills
You: But all business people do thatMe: He didn’t want to leave the WH. He called the Ga.Sec of State and asked for 11780 votes. He demanded that VP Pence not certify the election.
You: But he did leave!Me: He said this week any immigrant who graduates from a 2 or 4 yr school gets a green card.
You: That’s smart, but there is no way he will do it.Me: He said he would charge a 10% tariff on all imported goods.
You: Yeah, but China will pay for itMe: You don’t see anything wrong with any of these things ?
You: You have TDS
