Mark Cuban Destroys Donald Trump last night in an interview with Vivek Ramaswamy

You are entitled to your opinion.

I think the exact same thing about you, so we are even.
Ben Shapiro is a self made millionaire. You don’t even know who he is. Same with Elon. Same with Vivek.
 
Couldn't all of this be said about Mark Cuban as well? Are you suggesting that Cuban is not out for himself? Why couldn't Musk have aligned himself with Harris and received similar benefits, after all, he does own the predominant EV company in the world.
We all think of ourselves (human nature) but some of us, consider other people as well, and their needs and requirements.

Mark Cuban is the most genuine, passionate, happy, friendly, high energy person you will ever meet. He travels alone without an entourage, and is very approachable. He is still hungry and hustling, and never forgot where he came from. I have seen him at NBA basketball games in enemy territory where the home town fans line up to speak to him and take photos. They love him. He will stay and talk to every one of them.

To me, this is one of the most important traits to have. Trump has none of this.
 
Ben Shapiro is a self made millionaire. You don’t even know who he is. Same with Elon. Same with Vivek.
You mean money, right?

To me, achieving (giving and receiving) true love is more important than achieving economic wealth. In addition, it is more difficult and requires more of you than getting rich, because to obtain true love you must first learn how to give it and that is something that few people ever achieve.

True love means willingness to sacrifice your health, wealth and happiness for the benefit of the one you love.

Here is a poem I wrote over 30 years ago that shows you exactly what I mean:

I Am In Love

"I am in love" is a very simple statement
And one that’s said a million times a day
And yet I know my feelings are much deeper
Than those simple words can ever say

How can I have you feel the tremors
That shake my body when I think of you?
Or have you know the awesome power
You have to take away my "blue"?

I wake up every single morning
And thoughts of you pervade my mind
I go to sleep each and every evening
And feel your soul cuddling to mine

And in between those waking moments
My heart is filled with pure and utter joy
For just the knowledge of your love for me
Makes me feel like an innocent young boy

My days are filled with brim and fervor
As everything I see or touch I like
And everyone who I meet in person
Seems to draw upon my smiling sight

I love the way you make me feel
So full of purpose and of goals
And yet I know that when I’m with you
I tend to lose my learned controls

The physical desire I feel within me
Is unlike any I have ever known before
For I dream of being deep inside of you
In mind, body, heart and soul

My love for you is endless
In fact it grows much every day
I know that as time goes forward
It will expand in every way

This love I have for you inside of me
Is greater than the one I have for my own self
As I would gladly sacrifice my very existence
If it meant your happiness and health

So when they ask "Do you truly, really love her?"
I can surely answer "Yes, I really, truly do"
For I know true love requires giving
And I am giving all I have to you.

Harris would never sacrifice her beliefs in regulating big business like Trump is willing to do. As such, Musk would never get what he can and will get if Trump is elected.

Ben and Vivek are great people. Self made. Great family men. What are you complaints with them?
 
Harris would never sacrifice her beliefs in regulating big business like Trump is willing to do. As such, Musk would never get what he can and will get if Trump is elected.
She wants to raise the corp tax rate. 28% what do you think that will do to the economy?
 
Cuban turned out to be a real jackass. I watched a lot of shark tank. I have no real favorite on the show.

Good question and one I appreciate because it has made me do some research, which is something I like to do in seeking the truth.

In checking Ben Shapiro, I have to say that the man makes some valid points but then again some of the points he makes are not valid or intelligently researched.

Here is a link to why Shapiro has decided to support Trump:

Ben Shapiro: Why I'm co-hosting a Trump fundraiser

I disagree with most of the points he made as some of them are not researched or thought out well, some are outright wrong based on pure political bias (such as his anti-gay and transgender bias)and some are not all that important. In addition, the main reason given by Shapiro is that he is choosing to support Trump against Biden as he believes Biden was the worst president ever.............Nonetheless, Biden is no longer the nominee.

I do agree with his outlook of Biden making the immigration crisis worse but other than that, everything else he talks about is political bias (he is a natural conservative) and about non-researched events.

He did not at any point address Trump's business acumen.

He did not convince me.

Vivek is simply a crazy man. He has stated the following:

"I'm not a party man. Even now, I'm not a party man," Ramaswamy said on Tuesday during a fireside chat with Hudson Institute Senior Fellow Michael Doran in Washington, D.C., where he discussed international wars including in Israel and Ukraine.

"I'm using the Republican Party as a vehicle to advance what I see as a pro-American agenda that this country is hungry for," he continued as he answered Doran's first question, which kicked off a fiery conversation: "Why are you a Republican?"

He is using the Republican party because it is the party that he felt he had the best chance to become president and not because he has Republican beliefs. He is crazy and a con artist to achieve his OWN goals.

Neither convinced me of anything, much less that they are able to decide what is actually best for American but only what is best for themselves of their own beliefs.
 
She wants to raise the corp tax rate. 28% what do you think that will do to the economy?
Help the economy greatly. In 1950, the corporate tax rate was 50% and the tax rate on multi-millionaires was 91% and the country did great then. The rich were not happy but the country overall was.

A corporate tax rate of 28% is a decent (not great) tax rate. It truly, should be higher. It is about time that Capitalism has some controls. The rich as receiving 99% of the benefits now. Do YOU think that is good for the nation?
 
Cuban turned out to be a real jackass. I watched a lot of shark tank. I have no real favorite on the show.
Who on shark tank have not been real jackasses? It is a show and it is about money........... nothing else. Everything that is about money alone, is a jackass thing. Money is important in life but it is NOT the most important thing.

You are talking different times. Much of the world with manufacturing infrastructure was rebuilding from the war. Japan was rebuilding and within 30 years would be laughing at us for a while. And then South Korea which was a good percentage agrarian in the 1960's the same time frame we started the Great Society and still have poverty and hunger, and endless trillions spent on it while within 40 years South Korea became a regional juggernaut and is a rich nation now. The rest of the planet's first world nation and other rich in resources that are rich have caught up. So, the corporates could not go anywhere. And then they left here when they could do things cheaper overseas. We ruled everything in 1950. Adn the corporates knew it. A strike from the auto workers and/or steel industry caused issues in our economy. We had a much smaller government, and most people were tougher than we are now.

I asked you about them as men. Not as political pawns. Married. Children. Faithful. Self made. What do you have against their character?

No. Corporate inversions will come back and you ll see layoffs.

No one is talking about taxes returning to what they were in 1950. We are talking about this ending.

I never said anything about their character. I was not doing any comparisons. You are the one that brought the topic into discussion, not me.

That is true but everything in life has a cost. We, as a country, need to think about maintaining our infrastruture in positive condition, help Americans that are unable to help themselves, and keep everything working smoothly for all Americans (not just for the rich corporations).

Life is all about give and take and everyone has to give some to get some.

Profits for corporations have been exorbitant for years and everything else that the government is supposed to take care of has suffered. Individual corporations do not give a hoot about infrastructure, about education, about transportation, about police, about feeding the people not able to feed themselves.

We all need to give in order to get.

You truly have aversion to the truth, don't you. Your answer to everything is to debase the opposition in the hopes of shutting them down so they cannot prove you wrong.

I will tell you now and will tell you as much as you are trying to tell me "I will not cease to provide data, statistics, and facts and my presenting them here"

The more you try, the more you will stimulate me to go on. Your choice.

Capitalism has no controls?
How is 28% a control?

The average corporate tax rate among OECD countries fell from about 28% in 2000
to about 21.1% in 2021.

Don't those other countries know they need to control capitalism?

The rich as receiving 99% of the benefits now.

99%? How do you know? Show your formula.

Oh, right, you suck at math. Never mind.
