Then, when Trump first ran for president in 2016, he had Cuban’s support.

But in a recent interview with podcaster Theo Von, a Cuban, alluded to a confrontation between him and the former president.

He said he felt Trump was “the best thing that could happen to him in politics because he wasn’t a typical candidate” when he first ran, but then he “somehow overcame him.”

Still, Cuban admitted that he worked with the then-president when the COVID pandemic reached the United States in 2020.

The comments sparked a backlash in the former president’s inner circle, and even liberal host Joy Behar disagreed with Cuban’s comments, saying that even Stormy Daniels “was smart.”

The Trump campaign also seized on the comments as evidence to support its claim that Democrats, including Kamala Harris, despise voters who support the former president.

Trump’s national press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, said the comments were “extremely insulting to the thousands of women who work for President Trump and the tens of millions of women who proudly vote for him.”
