The ongoing feud between billionaires Elon Musk and Mark Cuban is intensifying, with Tesla Inc. CEO savoring Cuban losing the argument with a user on the diversity debate.

Musk responded to a post by another user, Mike Solana, who called it “wild” that Cuban thinks he’s not a racist. “Cuban arguing with a rabbit & losing is ‘chef’s kiss.'”
