Mark Cuban publicly asks Trump to become the robotics president

One of the most outspoken critics of President-elect Donald Trump leading up to the election was Mark Cuban, tech mogul, owner of the NBA's Mavericks and Shark Tank co-host. Now Cuban has apparently decided to move past his previous, and at times quite harsh, critiques of Trump to instead implore him make the U.S. the world leader in robotics.

"Even if it means trying to help pick winners. We have to win the robotics race. We are not even close right now."
