Business mogul and “Shark Tank’s” Mark Cuban thinks Donald Trump has a glaring flaw in his bid to win the White House.
Mark visited Access Hollywood Live on Friday, where he told Billy Bush and Kit Hoover that Trump’s off-the-cuff social media past might hurt him down the road.
“On social media, he’s active, but he’s not very good at it,” Mark said of The Donald. “I told him delete your old Tweets, they’re going to come back to haunt you and he goes, ‘Good idea,’ and didn’t do it.”

Mark suggested that the real estate tycoon find a different outlet to vent.
“I think for him it’s like a punching bag. That’s his place to let out all his aggressions and everything but it doesn’t work on social media,” he continued.
Beyond Tweets, Mark cautioned all the presidential candidates to take tech-based threats seriously.

“Technology is taking over. When we talk about the military, it’s not about bombs and bullets, it’s about bits and bytes. Our biggest threat isn’t someone coming over and dropping something on us. Our biggest threat is people attacking us and coming in an infiltrating our military,” the “Shark Tank” star said. “How many times have credit cards been stolen… that’s our biggest threat. He doesn’t get that side of it. Hillary [Clinton] doesn’t get it. [Trump] is not the only one… that’s a big problem.”
As for taking on Trump in a battle for the Presidency, Mark believes he’d trounce Trump.
“If I ran on the other side, I could just abuse him and he has to stick to the party line,” he said. “Being open, being independent, being able to think it though, that would give me a huge advantage and I’d destroy him.”
