'Don't Normalize' Trump's Behavior, Warns Mark Cuban, Says It's An Insult To American Workers To Claim Their Job Could Be Done By A Child

8 months ago

In a recent social media clash, Mark Cuban called out Donald Trump for insulting American autoworkers. Cuban, the entrepreneur and part-owner of the Dallas Mavericks, took to Twitter to criticize Trump’s remarks during his interview at the Economic Club of Chicago.

Trump claimed that autoworkers in America were essentially just assembling car parts “out of a box” and even went as far as to say, “We could have our child do it.”

Don't Miss:

Cuban was not having any of it. In a tweet, he said, “He still thinks it's 1965. It's obvious he has no idea what it takes to manufacture any advanced product, car or otherwise.” Cuban made it clear that Trump's comments were completely out of touch with the reality of modern manufacturing and a direct insult to hardworking Americans who keep the industry going.

When Stephen Miller, a former advisor to Trump, rushed in to defend the former president, Cuban responded quickly. Miller suggested that Cuban had been “hoaxed” by a “deceptively edited clip” and argued that Trump's comments were directed at European car manufacturers, not American workers.

Cuban responded, “Stephen, the Mercedes plant is in the USA,” before continuing, "The workers are American. He said a child could do the job of an American worker. That's an insult.”

Cuban wasn't just upset about the specific comments on autoworkers. He also aimed at Trump's behavior during the interview, calling it “awful.” According to Cuban, whenever Trump couldn't answer a question, he insulted the interviewer instead, adding, “Now THAT is something a child can do.”

There was more back-and-forth. Cuban even provided extensive information via Grok chatbot to support his assertions, citing Mercedes-Benz U.S. International (MBUSI), the company that operates Mercedes-Benz activities in Alabama.
