Could Mark Cuban be Texas’ answer to Donald Trump? The Dallas Mavericks’ owner and Shark Tank star said on Meet the Press Sunday that he would be open to serving as a running mate for either Trump or Democrat Hillary Clinton. Some Republicans have even approached Cuban about running for president as a third-party alternative to Trump.
