After radical leftist Mark Cuban shockingly declared that former President Donald Trump is never around “strong, intelligent women,” Trump and his female allies have clapped back at the outrageous statement.
Cuban effectively called Trump-supporting women weak and unintelligent, prompting significant backlash on social media. The comment came during his appearance on “The View.”
DISGUSTING: Top Kamala surrogate Mark Cuban says no "strong, intelligent women" support President Trump.
They're now openly attacking the millions of strong, intelligent women fighting alongside President Trump every day to Make America Great Again.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump fired back, stating: “I surround myself with the strongest of women” and that “all strong women, and women in general, should be very angry about this weak man’s statement.”
“Mark Cuban, a really dumb guy, who thinks he’s ‘hot stuff’ but he’s absolutely nothing, is now out there saying that I don’t surround myself with strong women. Actually, he is very wrong, I surround myself with the strongest of women – with the understanding that ALL women are great, whether strong or not strong,” he wrote.
Trump went on to call Cuban “such a fool,” noting that he is “constantly on television being critical” — but he “tuned him out completely” while he was president “because he called incessantly.”
“I told him, very pointedly, ‘Look Mark, I’ve got a lot of things to do, I just can’t be taking so many pointless calls from you,’” he added.
He then insinuated that Cuban’s Trump Derangement Syndrome was caused by Trump snubbing him while he was still president.
“In any event, that affected him greatly, because he’s a very insecure guy, and a MAJOR LOSER, always has been and always will be! Nobody likes him, nobody respects him, and he’s unattractive both inside and out! He should go back to talk about the person he was forced to support, because I didn’t want it, Lyin’ Kamala Harris. Also, he’s got no clubhead speed!” Trump wrote.
Trump then specifically responded to the attack on female Trump supporters, writing: “I may, in fact, be surrounded by the strongest women in the World, including Heads of Countries, who make Mark look like a ‘baby!’ All strong women, and women in general, should be very angry about this weak man’s statement.”

Trump wasn’t the only one to respond to Cuban’s comments, as his running mate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) also fired back during an interview with Breitbart News — telling the outlet: “Whether it’s Mark Cuban or Kamala Harris or Joe Biden, why are these people so preoccupied with denigrating and insulting and condescending their fellow citizens?”
He also stated that Cuban’s comment is “insulting my wife, who’s a very strong and very intelligent woman and goes to nearly every one of my campaign events with me. And it’s insulting to Lara Trump, who’s done an incredible job as co-chair of the RNC. It’s insulting to Melania [Trump], who has the number one New York Times best-selling book right now. Its insulting to everybody who thinks that our politics should be about public policy that makes peoples’ lives better instead of attacking your fellow citizens.”
Many female Trump supporters responded to Cuban’s comments, including women’s rights activist Riley Gaines:
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

Martin Luther King Jr.’s niece, Alveda King, responded to the comments as well.
“Cuban’s words are mean, sad, and misogynistic, and the left can’t even define what a woman is,” she said.
