The left continues to spew divisive rhetoric aimed at Trump Supporters. This time, it came from billionaire businessman Mark Cuban.
Cuban made an appearance on ABC’s “The View” Thursday morning, during which he said that “You never see [Donald Trump] around strong, intelligent women, ever” because they are “intimidating to him.”

Conservative women who support Trump were outraged and spoke out against Cuban’s insult.
Alina Habba, the attorney who became a breakout star of Trump’s NYC “hush-money” trial in May, rattled off a list of cases she’s won on behalf of the former president.
“By the way, I could keep going. But those are the cases I win. And your left-wing media and your rhetoric, and your putting people down? President Trump doesn’t do that. He surrounds himself with strong women like me. So Mark Cuban, you can go to hell. I’m voting for Trump because I want my daughter to never, ever be around people who speak like you do.”
Mark Cuban, you can go to hell.

Former collegiate swimmer and activist Riley Gaines also had some words for Cuban.
“Hey Mark Cuban, if you never see Trump around strong, intelligent women, then explain this,” she wrote in a post on X accompanied by a photo of her and Trump standing together. Gaines also torched Cuban for his comments in a video on the platform.
We shouldn’t be too surprised Mark Cuban would say something so stupid considering he says Border Czar Harris has done a “good job” at the southern border

Cuban later tried to defend his comments on X, claiming, “I know many strong, intelligent women voting for Trump. Including in my extended family. I’m certainly not saying female voters are not smart, strong and intelligent.”
This did post did not do himself any favors, so the businessman eventually made a post half-heartedly apologizing for his insult.
“I didn’t get it out exactly the way I thought I did. So I apologize to anyone who felt slighted or upset by my response. As I said, it wasn’t about trump voters, supporters or employees. Current or former.”
