Oct 31, 2024, 05:23 PM

Mark Cuban, acting as a surrogate for Kamala Harris, made a controversial statement on 'The View' claiming that 'you never see Donald Trump around strong, intelligent women.' This comment has sparked significant backlash from Trump supporters, who feel insulted by the implication that women who support Trump are not strong or intelligent. Prominent figures, including former Trump White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany, have publicly condemned Cuban's remarks, calling them profoundly offensive. The Trump campaign has also criticized Cuban, demanding an apology and questioning why Kamala Harris has not disavowed his comments. Cuban, a billionaire, has alienated millions of women, including Trump supporter Miriam Adelson.
