The Trump campaign has criticized Mark Cuban, a top surrogate for Kamala Harris, for his comments on women who support former President Donald Trump, calling them 'extremely insulting' and demanding that the vice president condemn his remarks. Cuban made the comments during an appearance on ABC’s 'The View,' stating that Trump is not comfortable around strong, intelligent women and finds them intimidating. The Trump campaign's national press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, condemned Cuban's remarks, emphasizing that female Trump supporters are strong and intelligent individuals, including mothers, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders.
Leavitt highlighted the disrespect shown towards millions of Americans supporting President Trump and urged Kamala Harris to denounce Cuban's comments. The Harris campaign has not responded to the request for comment. This incident follows President Biden's alleged reference to Trump supporters as 'garbage' during a Zoom call with Voto Latino. The White House denied the claim, stating that Biden's comment was taken out of context.
In response, Trump drove around in a 'Make America Great Again' garbage truck in Wisconsin, addressing his supporters at a rally. He criticized Biden and Harris, stating that they cannot lead America if they do not love Americans and accusing them of harboring hatred towards the American people. The political tensions continue to escalate as the election approaches, with both sides engaging in verbal sparring and accusations.
