Satire or irony
“I think, my own atheism notwithstanding, if Mr. Cuban successfully does something to reduce the cost of unbelievably expensive pharmaceuticals in America, it would be a legitimate heavenly miracle.”
Book 1 of a satirical sainthood hearing for Mark Cuban versus Martin Shkreli. Conditional on Mark Cuban's Cost Plus Drug Company (MCCPDC) actually reducing US drug costs; the 'miracle' framing signals the author's doubt that it will.
Marked or evident satire, hyperbole or irony.
