Cuban Makes Controversial Remark On The View

Mark Cuban recently shocked the panel and the audience of The View when he claimed that Donald Trump does not have “intelligent women” working for him. It’s no secret that Cuban has always had strong opinions. However, when you are in the media like he is, everything you say will be picked apart.

In this case, suggesting that Donald Trump does not hire “intelligent women” is drawing backlash, not only from Republicans, but from Shark Tank viewers as well.

Mark Cuban said: “Donald Trump – you never see him around strong, intelligent women, ever. It’s just that simple. They’re intimidating to him. He doesn’t like to be challenged by them.”

Angry Viewers Call For Shark Tank Boycott Following Incendiary Comments

These latest comments from Mark Cuban kicked a hornet’s nest online. Following these remarks, many commenters on social media called for the boycott of Shark Tank, a show that Cuban has been associated with for many years.

Mark Cuban has since apologized for his remarks, but, from the looks of it, the damage from this is already done. Even so, he said: “When I said this during the interview, 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.”

  • One particularly fired-up commenter wrote: “#sharktank is going to lose a lot of viewers this year if they don’t fire Mark Cuban immediately! What a disgrace @mcuban is for supporting evil p**ophiles.”
  • Another commenter said: “This tour de force in cringe by Cuban makes it impossible to watch your show. I feel bad for the rest of you.”
  • Another commenter added: “F Cuban.”
