Mark Cuban Deletes Supportive Tweets Of Harris Post-Election

A prominent business figure and Dallas Mavericks minority owner finds himself at the center of controversy following the 2024 presidential election outcome.

Fox News reported that Mark Cuban, who actively campaigned for Vice President Kamala Harris, is facing criticism for removing social media posts supporting her campaign after Donald Trump's victory in the presidential election.

The billionaire businessman addressed the situation after social media users on X noticed the disappearance of his pro-Harris content.

Cuban defended his actions by explaining that deleting old posts has been a consistent practice for him across various election cycles and other topics, even mentioning an app he previously developed for post deletion that ceased operations in 2021.

Campaign Support and Controversial Statements During Election

Cuban's involvement in the Harris campaign included significant public appearances and vocal criticism of Trump. His participation extended beyond mere endorsements, as he engaged with diverse communities and business leaders during campaign events.

The businessman made headlines during his appearance on "The View," where he made controversial remarks about Trump's interactions with women.

His statement about Trump never being seen around strong, intelligent women drew attention, particularly as it coincided with President Biden's controversial comments about Trump supporters.

Following these statements, Cuban acknowledged his misstep, showing awareness of the impact his words had on the political discourse. The timing of his comments and subsequent retraction highlighted the intense nature of the campaign's final days.

Post-Election Response and Professional Reconciliation

After Trump secured victory by winning Pennsylvania, Cuban demonstrated a notably different tone in his social media presence. His response to the election results showed a swift transition from campaign surrogate to pragmatic business leader.

Cuban posted on X, where he wrote:

Congrats @realDonald Trump. You won fair and square. Congrats to @ElonMusk as well. #Godspeed

The businessman's approach to post-election dynamics revealed his willingness to work with the incoming administration.

In a CNBC appearance, Cuban expressed his readiness to assist Trump's initiatives, stating:

If Trump wins, last time when he won, he asked me to help on health care, on PPE [personal protective equipment], I sat with [ex-White House aide] Peter Navarro and helped him come up with a mask company and helped them grow. That was all domestic production. I'll do the same thing. I'm America first

Navigating Political and Business Interests

Cuban's position as a minority owner of the Dallas Mavericks adds another layer to his political activities. His dual role as a business leader and political surrogate created a complex dynamic throughout the campaign season.

The deletion of his pro-Harris posts sparked discussions about the intersection of business interests and political advocacy. Social media users' quick detection of the removed content demonstrated the challenges public figures face in managing their digital footprint.

Cuban's explanation about his long-standing practice of deleting old posts provided context to his actions. However, the timing of the deletions following Harris's defeat led to increased scrutiny and speculation about his motivations.

Looking Back at the Political Journey

The Harris campaign surrogate turned post-election pragmatist exemplifies the complex nature of business leaders' involvement in political campaigns.

Mark Cuban's transition from actively supporting Vice President Kamala Harris to acknowledging Trump's victory highlighted the delicate balance between political advocacy and business interests.

His willingness to work with the incoming Trump administration, despite their previous conflicts, demonstrates the practical approach many business leaders take following electoral transitions. The controversy surrounding his deleted posts serves as a reminder of the permanent nature of digital actions in the modern political landscape.
