Everyone has the same hunch about Mark Cuban following his decision to sell the Dallas Mavericks.
Cuban made headlines this week when he revealed he will be leaving ‘Shark Tank’ after a 15-year run. He’s followed that up with plans to sell a majority stake in said team, with casino magnate Miriam Adelson and the Adelson family reportedly set to make a $3.5 billion purchase.
According to the Dallas Morning News, Cuban is set to sell a large percentage of the team to Adelson, who is the widow of Sheldon Adelson, but will maintain operational control in what would be a unique sale as Adelson would own more than 50 percent.
Given these two moves, folks are convinced the 65-year-old is going to run for president. You can see some of the social media reactions right below:

Cuban has flirted with the idea of running for President in the past. He told NBC he would not run as a third-party candidate in an interview from earlier this year.
There’s also some chatter about Cuban looking to open a casino resort in Texas. If the sale is approved by the NBA Board of Governors, his interests would be aligned with that of the Las Vegas Sands Corporation, which is planning a partnership that would see to a casino and arena being built in the Dallas area once gambling gets legalized in Texas.
