Trump campaign criticizes Harris surrogate Mark Cuban for ‘insulting’ pro-Trump women

SPECIAL: Trump’s campaign is exploding Mark CubanKamala Harris’ top surrogate for making “extremely derogatory” comments against women who support former President Donald Trump and demanding the vice president “immediately condemn” his remarks.

Cuban made the comments on ABC’s “The View” on Thursday morning.

“Donald Trump, you’ll never see him around strong, intelligent women,” Cuban said. he said. “It’s that simple. They scare him. He doesn’t like them challenging him.”

Karoline Leavitt, the Trump campaign’s national press secretary, criticized Cuban’s comments.

“Joe Biden called Trump supporters trash, and now Kamala’s top lieutenant, Mark Cuban, has implied that female Trump supporters are ‘weak and stupid,'” Leavitt told Fox News Digital.

“This is utterly insulting to the thousands of women who worked for President Trump and the tens of millions of women who voted for him,” Leavitt said. “These women are mothers, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders, and despite what Mark Cuban and Kamala Harris say, they are truly strong and intelligent.”

“The joy at Kamala HQ has been replaced by division, insults, and a disturbing level of disrespect for the millions of Americans who support President Trump after four years of destruction under Kamala Harris,” Leavitt told Fox News Digital.

“Women want a president who will secure our borders, remove violent criminals from our neighborhoods, and put more money in our pockets, and that’s exactly why we support President Trump,” Leavitt said. “Kamala Harris must immediately condemn Mark Cuban’s disrespectful insult towards women.”

The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

This comment comes just days after President Biden referred to Trump supporters as “trash.”

BIDEN CALLED TRUMP SUPPORTERS ‘TRASH’ DURING HARRIS’ CAMPAIGN EVENT; Vice President PLEDGES UNITY AT ELİPS MILLIA

Biden spoke Tuesday during a Zoom call with Voto Latino, one of the largest Latino voter and civic advocacy organizations in the United States. Biden was asked about a comment made by comedian Tony Hinchcliffe at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden on Sunday, in which he called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage.”

“The only garbage I see floating around are his supporters,” Biden said.

The White House has since denied that Biden called Trump supporters “trash” and claimed the comment was taken out of context.

In Wisconsin on Wednesday, Trump wore a high-vis garbage worker vest and rode a garbage truck with the slogan “Make America Great Again” to address supporters at a Green Bay rally.

“He called them trash — and they mean it, even though my supporters are a lot better quality than Crooked Joe and Lyin’ Kamala,” Trump told his supporters Wednesday afternoon.

But Trump said he had an answer for the president and vice president.

“My answer to Joe and Kamala is very simple: If you don’t love Americans, you can’t lead America,” Trump said. “And you can’t be president if you hate the American people, and there’s a lot of hate out there.”
