BREAKING: Mark Cuban Drops Trump Truth Bomb, It’s Massive

November 28, 2017 Frank Spear

Billionaire businessman and Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban is known for being an outspoken Independent who initially supported President Trump. He recently had an interview on Fox News’ “Objectified” where he commented on President Trump’s fanbase.

Cuban spoke candidly about President Trump and the loyalty of his supporters. According to The Washington Examiner, he told Fox News that “President Trump has a great following and they’re not going to turn on him.” His point acknowledges that President Trump’s supporters have solid reasons for doing so, and he hasn’t let them down thus far.

While Cuban initially supported Trump, he ended up backing away because he believed that the President was ill-informed on the issues plaguing Americans. He stated as much during his interview.

“I was really concerned about a candidate becoming president that was not making the effort to learn the issues,” he said. Although President Trump’s widespread support from average Americans suggests he was, in fact, well-versed on the important issues, that didn’t appear to be enough to convince Cuban.

Supporters of President Trump think he’s been doing a fantastic job learning and addressing the issues. One poll found that approximately 82 percent of admitted Trump voters would vote for him again. This wouldn’t be the case if President Trump hadn’t “learned the issues.” He was elected because he promised to improve the lives of Americans, whereas former-President Barack Obama had not.

President Trump’s campaign centered on a goal to “Make America Great Again.” He has said that a considerable section of the country was left forgotten, and his goal was to make their opinions relevant again.

Cuban stated that if he makes a presidential run in 2020, as he has hinted, he will run as a Republican. This move would place him head-to-head with President Trump, and it wouldn’t end well for him.

There is a possibility that this is why former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon has been talking to Cuban about running as a Democrat in the 2020 race, which was also reported by Washington Examiner.

“They talk regularly,” Sam Nunberg, a former Trump campaign political adviser, said. “They’re very similar. They have a lot of synergy there. Even when [Steve] went to work for Trump, Mark would be interviewed and say nice things about Steve.”

Cuban denied that he ever spoke with Bannon about running as a Democrat. These conflicting stories raise many questions and will undoubtedly lead up to some interesting conversations if Cuban decides to run in 2020.

Mark Cuban believes Trump supporters will continue supporting him. Do you agree?

Despite Cuban changing his mind on supporting President Trump, at least he realizes that the President’s supporters are relentless and have good reasons. He may not see President Trump as “learning the issues,” but that apparently is not the case with voters.

The President has vowed to work on health care, tax reform, immigration and border policy, jobs, and financial growth in the United States as a whole. President Trump is committed to push the country forward and improve Americans’ lives. Perhaps Cuban is the one who hasn’t learned the issues.

Ahmed, "The Clock Builder" Story Gets Weird.

POLICE DON'T PLAN TO RE-CHECK AHMED'S STRANGE 'CLOCK'

Teen did not build suspicious device from scratch

The Irving, Texas, Police Department has no plans to further investigate the sensational case of Muslim “clock boy” Ahmed Mohamed, despite questions being raised about whether the teenager personally built his suspicious-looking clock, an Irving police source told WND.

Questions also have been raised about the background of Eyman Mohamed, Ahmed’s 17-year-old sister, who told the Daily Beast during a day-long interview with the family that she was still upset about an incident in which she was suspended from school after being accused by another student of wanting to blow up the building.

Eyman has been running Ahmed’s social media campaign, which characterizes him as a victim of anti-Muslim stereotyping.

NBA owner Mark Cuban of the Dallas Mavericks told HBO “Real Time” host Bill Maher last Friday he spoke to Ahmed on the phone but was puzzled as to why his sister kept trying to feed him answers.

“We talked about science, but while I’m talking to him on the phone, as I ask him a question, ‘Tell me what happened because I’m curious.’ Right? His sister, over his shoulder, you could hear, listening to the question, giving him the answer,” Cuban said, the Dallas Morning News reported Wednesday.

During media interviews, Ahmed has maintained he “made a clock.”

“I’m the person who built a clock and got in trouble with it,” he said, further describing the clock as his own “invention.”

Electronics expert Thomas Talbot posted a viral video to YouTube Sept. 18 arguing Ahmed did not actually build the clock. Talbot claims the teenager appears to have ripped out existing components from a standard digital alarm clock.

After removing the plastic cover, he said, Mohamed attached the internal components to the inside of a suitcase.

“This child, nothing against him personally, never built a clock,” said Talbot in the video. “He did not invent a clock or build it, and I’m going to show you why. … What this is is a commercial alarm clock, as you would purchase in any department store and use at your bedside. All he did was remove the plastic case from the alarm clock. This is not an invention. This is not something that someone built or even assembled.”

A statement by Irving police pointed out that under Texas law, “a person is guilty of possessing a hoax bomb if he possesses a device that is intended to cause anyone to be alarmed or a reaction of any type by law enforcement officers.”

The Irving Police Department officially closed the case and instructed employees not to comment to the media beyond information already released.

However, WND spoke to a source inside the Irving Police Department who said detectives were aware of the Internet reports alleging the boy didn’t construct a clock of his own invention.

Still, the source said the clock will not be re-checked and that the family was notified last week, ahead of those reports, that Ahmed’s device was available to be picked up.

The source expressed puzzlement at news reports saying the family hired lawyers to retrieve the clock from police.

The source said the police department is still waiting for the family to pick up Ahmed’s property.

The source further said there is a lot of misinformation circulating in the media about the case, but he declined to be more specific.

The source said the Irving police have more information that has not yet made public, but those details will be released in the coming days.

The source maintained detectives have no plans to re-open the case.

In a twist in the case, Eyman Mohamed described her own ordeal involving a fake bomb threat at another school.

“I got suspended from school for three days from this stupid same district, from this girl saying I wanted to blow up the school, something I had nothing to do with,” Mohamed told the Daily Beast. “I got suspended and I didn’t do anything about it. And so, when I heard about Ahmed, I was so mad because it happened to me and I didn’t get to stand up, so I’m making sure he’s standing up because it’s not right. So I’m not jealous. I’m kinda like – it’s like he’s standing for me.”

The young girl said her suspension did not take place at MacArthur High School in Irving. Instead, her punishment came during her first year of middle school when the family moved to Texas from New York City.

“I knew English, but the culture was different, the people were different,” Mohamed said.

Net Neutrality Is Going To Screw Up The Internet!

Billionaire Mark Cuban Reveals Possible Move by Feds That Absolutely Terrifies Him

Billionaire Mark Cuban said Wednesday at a tech conference that he fears the Federal Communications Commission’s proposal to regulate the Internet would “f*** everything up.”

“Net neutrality is just a demonization of big companies,” Cuban said at the Code/Media conference in California, according to Re/Code.

FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler proposed rules earlier this month to forbid Internet service providers from charging money from companies like Netflix to receive faster service.

“Having them overseeing the Internet scares the s**t out of me,” Cuban said.

The investor and star of the hit-show “Shark Tank” has been an open critic of supposed net neutrality regulations. Earlier this month, he slammed the proposed rules in an interview with The Daily Dot.

“There is no way to account for how future FCC commissioners deal with these issues,” Cuban told the publication. “They could approach it 180 degrees differently with every commission overhaul.”

According to Re/Code, Cuban said at the conference he would, however, not be opposed to Congress pushing through legislation that prohibits cable companies from discriminating against certain websites.
