Mark Cuban apparently thinks he’s found the magic formula for a public relations triumph: insult the former President while throwing shade at the women in his life. In a recent episode of the daytime staple “The View,” Cuban suggested that Donald Trump never surrounds himself with “strong, intelligent women.” That was a bold claim, especially considering his audience likely has more experience discussing celebrity feuds than political policy. Enter JD Vance, the Republican Vice Presidential candidate, who swiftly decided to correct Cuban’s curious character assessment.
Vance didn’t hold back during an interview with Matt Boyle from Breitbart News. He pointed out that Cuban’s statements were a direct affront to his own wife, who is not only strong and intelligent but accompanies Vance to nearly every campaign event. Let’s face it, there’s a difference between throwing around buzzwords for effect and acknowledging the real-life accomplishments of women, and Vance wasn’t about to let Cuban off the hook for a cheap jab. He also made sure to include Lara Trump and Melania Trump in his rebuttal, highlighting their significant contributions to the GOP. Apparently, Cuban’s grasp on strong women is as tenuous as his grasp on political discourse.

What’s more, Vance sees Cuban’s comments as emblematic of a broader issue: a left that insists on attacking fellow Americans instead of discussing solutions to real problems. It’s not just Mark Cuban tossing out petty insults; it’s been a hallmark of the liberal playbook in recent years. Instead of focusing on issues that actually matter—like the border crisis or the soaring cost of living—these critics seem more preoccupied with slinging empty barbs. Vance made a fervent case that a certain Vice President, who prefers to lead with condescension rather than competence, has made it almost impossible for average Americans to buy a home.
In a time when finding common ground should be a priority, the left seems intent on dividing instead. Vance’s rallying cry against the condescending attitudes of figures like Kamala Harris and Joe Biden serves as more than just a rebuttal to Cuban; it’s a reminder of the necessity for constructive conversation over political theater. The question he raised was simple: Why are these leaders so invested in tearing down their fellow citizens instead of lifting them up?
With only five days until the election, Vance emphasized the urgency for voters to reject this toxic culture of denigration. It’s not just about casting a vote for Trump; it’s about standing up against a political elite that seems to know little about the lives of real Americans. So while Cuban and his like keep up their tirades, it is clear that Vance and his supporters are focused not on insults, but on actual change. Now that sounds like a campaign worth rallying behind.
