Mark Cuban on Twitter:

Well, I’ve had interesting Twitter battles. Kobe Bryant and amnesty; Donald Trump, because he’s so much fun to pick on. I’ve gotten fined by the NBA–it was the fastest way to increase my Twitter followers. I like to engage on Twitter… sometimes because it’s just a fun place to f**k with people. source
The Mavs owner also noted that he has absolutely no political aspirations, citing a lack of talent when it comes to delivering speeches.
I’m not a politician–I will never be a politician. I’ve given bad, bad speeches where I’ve lost my train of thought, because I’ve lost the audience.
Don’t speak–engage. I hate giving speeches. I’ll either do a sit-down or a 100 percent Q&A. You’ve got to make sure you’re hitting the points the audience wants.
