NBA owner Mark Cuban is hard to defense — because he can be in three places at once. He’s said he’s open to being Donald Trump’s running mate, Hillary Clinton’s veep and even running for prez himself.
The Dallas Mavericks promoter, tech billionaire and reality TV star calls himself “fiercely independent” but told NBC’s “Meet the Press” Sunday: “If [Trump] asked me, I’d be like, ‘OK, Donald. That’s great. Let’s talk about it. But we’re both going to have to dig in and really look and understand the issues so we can come up with solutions.'”
Cuban also expressed interest in running with Clinton.
“He said he would ‘absolutely’ entertain that conversation, but ‘she would have to go more to the center,'” reported the network, which noted that Cuban’s name has been floated as a potential third party candidate being recruited to take on Trump.
