The billionaire business mogul seemed to like the idea, and Berkeley took it a step further.

After Democratic losses in the presidential, House, and Senate elections, it seemed wide open for anyone on the Democratic side to run for president in 2028. California Governor Gavin Newsom, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro are all among the potential candidates for the ticket.

“Yes, we will run away and win,” Cuban declared of the ticket with Barkley. There's no question about that.

Mr. Cuban launched an attack on Mr. Trump in the final stages of the campaign. She told “The View” that Trump “has never been seen around strong, intelligent women.” He later acknowledged that he had made a mistake because his remarks followed President Biden's remarks in which he appeared to call Trump supporters “trash.”
