    I really don't think he would do well after his association with Hillary. She is toxic waste at this point, the Dems are going to need fresh faces to have any success in future elections.

    The population did not vote him in. The electoral college system did. The system is biased toward the State vote rather than the individual which proves we as individuals don't live in a deciding process.

    I guess if we want a good president we'd better create and watch a lot more reality tv shows. We need a bigger, better talent pool.

    Kanye's association with the Kardashians is making so much sense now

    Just what we need, another businessman who thinks you treat political leaders like you treat a janitor who isn't cleaning the bathroom.

    Trump ran against an even more unpopular person.

    Cuban would be running against a more unpopular person, too.

    But hey, we're in the new normal where reality TV show $billionaires are the better choice than the career criminal politicians.

    I would consider Cuban. Being a billionaire or a tv show host isn't what makes Trump horrible. It's his inability to separate that persona from the decision making process. If Cuban can show an understanding of important subject matter, compassion for those in need and a vision that makes sense to me financially, socially and ethically then I'd be in. But those are big IF's.

    We are at a point in society where celebrities can and will run for president and win. That's how dumb that position has become as well as the American people

    Way more "respect" than most of them deserve.

    And I love the results so far.

    Fantastic.
    Maybe we can get a whole string of dipshits. It'll be like the Reagan-to-Bush country-fucking cluster.

    Good thing Cuban is talking now.

    Once he's "committed" he'll be in a padded room where he belongs.
