It appears that Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban could be considering a Presidential run in 2020 against Donald Trump.
Cuban, who previously considered running for President in 2016, told Fox News’ Chris Wallace that he’s not actively pursuing to campaign as of yet but that he’s leaving the door open because “you don’t know what can happen between now and November.”
"You just don’t know what could happen between now and November."

I never would have considered it prior to a month ago, but now things are changing rapidly and dramatically,” Cuban said. “I’m not saying no, but it’s not something I’m actively pursuing. I’m just keeping the door open. … You just don’t know what can happen between now and November.”
Later in the interview Cuban fired back at Trump’s assertion that the economy would spike back up once the quarantine is over.

People aren’t going to just venture outside. They’re not going to go to large gatherings. They’re not going to feel confident right off the bat,” C “That concern is going to lead to people holding back on spending money.”
Back in November Cuban said he considered running for President but his family turned him down.
It’s unclear how Cuban could make a Presidential run this late into the election cycle but weirder things have happened.
