Mark Cuban Compares Kamala Harris' Rise In 2024 Election Polls, Betting Odds To New CEO: 'That Trend Is Her Friend'

Mark Cuban said Vice President Kamala Harris has done a good job of communicating to the public and will continue to do so with less than 50 days left to the 2024 presidential election.

What Happened: Cuban, who has publicly endorsed Harris for president, said he likes to compare the vice president to being a CEO of a business.

"She went from lack of favorability, lack of awareness, and way behind Donald Trump to here we are 50 days later from where she started. She's at worst tied," Cuban said during a CNBC interview Thursday.

Cuban said Harris is making progress and the public is becoming more aware of her policies and stances ahead of the 2024 election.

"If she just continues along that trend, that trend is her friend."

The billionaire entrepreneur said when it comes to key topics like health care and tariffs, Harris and her team do a full analysis.

"She doesn't just say yes or no. They really dig in."

In comparison, Cuban said when it comes to Trump, the former president "will say what fits the audience."

Cuban brushed off commentary from CNBC co-host Joe Kernen who said Elon Musk and others have credited Harris' rise with favorable media coverage.

"What's the most watched news channel? What's the most listened to podcast?" Cuban asked

Cuban said it's Fox News that is the most watched news channel, which is conservative and favorable to Trump. Cuban's comment on the top podcasts may have implied Joe Rogan and others who have been favorable to Trump.

"The mainstream media is not who you think it is."

What's Next: Cuban said the rise of Harris should continue into the 2024 election as more voters become aware of her policies and what she will do different from the current administration.

"She's got 40 days to communicate other things," Cuban added.

Election polls and betting odds are good metrics to see where the head-to-head battle between Trump and Harris stands.

Cuban, who is an investor in Polymarket through a fund, said it's hard to know how accurate the betting market for president is since U.S. residents aren't able to bet on the site.
