Billionaire businessman Mark Cuban said Thursday that he does not think President Trump is learning from his mistakes in office.

"I don’t think he’s learning from his mistakes. I think he’s a salesperson at his heart and he follows his sales wins, he goes to where he thinks he can get his wins," Cuban told the Fox Business Network's "Cavuto: Coast to Coast."

Cuban, a vocal Trump critic, said that in order to succeed Trump should focus on his strengths, including "not being a politician."

"I want to see him succeed. I think not being a politician is one of his core strengths and playing to your strengths is something you should always do to get results. So I think going out, and just going to where he can get results regardless of party I think is a huge positive for him," Cuban said.

"I think he’s got to demonstrate that, he’s got to show the empathy gene more than just every now and then. He’s got to be able to demonstrate that he’s learned from the past more than just a week and then I’m more than happy to reconsider."

Trump had faced fierce backlash from critics for his comments on racially charged violence spurred by hate groups in Charlottesville, Va., last month, in which he said "many sides" were responsible. The president did not back off from his remarks.

Cuban's comments come as Trump seeks his first major legislative victory, with Republicans launching an effort to push tax reform through Congress.

"Fiscally, if he can get tax reform done — and I think it’s going to take reaching out as opposed to just trying to negotiate with other politicians — then I think he’ll get some momentum," Cuban said.

"You know, as a good salesperson, I think he knows how to play up momentum better than he knows how to play from behind."
