Billionaire Mark Cuban revealed that his support for former Vice President Kamala Harris stemmed from how “she wasn’t Donald Trump” when asked in a new interview why he campaigned for Harris in 2024.

Cuban was one of several celebrities to support Harris in her presidential campaign bid against then-presidential candidate Donald Trump, which included an appearance at a Wisconsin rally. In a one-on-one discussion with Stephen A. Smith, the former Shark Tank host was asked what drew him to supporting Harris despite “how chaotic things looked” for the Democratic Party, to which he simply said, “Because she wasn’t Donald Trump.”
