International Women’s Day Turns Rough for Mark Cuban as Women Troll Him

Secretary of Agriculture Brooke Rollins responded to comments made by Mark Cuban, after the billionaire businessman claimed that President Donald Trump does not surround himself with “strong, intelligent women.”

Rollins, along with Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator Kelly Loeffler, took to social media to push back against Cuban’s remarks, highlighting the women serving in Trump’s administration.

On International Women’s Day, Loeffler posted a message on X, featuring several women serving in President Trump’s cabinet.

“Honored to serve alongside so many STRONG, INTELLIGENT women as a member of President Trump’s Cabinet,” Loeffler wrote, capitalizing the words “strong” and “intelligent” in what appeared to be a direct response to Cuban’s remarks.

Rollins then shared the post, adding her own commentary while tagging Cuban.

“The club is real!” Rollins wrote. “Thank you, @KLoeffler – to serve alongside you and our girl posse as we battle for the soul of America is such a blessing!”

She also included a smiling face emoji, making it clear Cuban was being called out directly.

The Trump administration has several high-ranking women serving in key leadership positions, contradicting Cuban’s claim. The women highlighted in Loeffler’s post include:

• Attorney General Pam Bondi
• Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard
• Labor Secretary-designate Lori Chavez-DeRemer
• U.S. Ambassador-Designate to the United Nations Elise Stefanik
• Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem
• Education Secretary Linda McMahon

Additionally, several other influential women hold top positions in the administration, including:

• White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt
• White House Chief of Staff Susie Wiles
• Harmeet Dhillon, nominee for Deputy Attorney General for Civil Rights

Cuban made his remarks during an appearance on ABC’s “The View”, where he claimed that Trump avoids being around “strong, intelligent women.”

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

.@mcuban this is extremely insulting to the thousands of women who work for President Trump, and the tens of millions of women who are proudly voting for him.

These women are mothers, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders.

And yes, we are strong AND intelligent! #WomenForTrump https://t.co/aYpoVLAtiU

His comments were widely criticized, especially given the forum in which he made them.

President Trump and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) responded to Cuban’s claim at the time, delivering sharp comebacks.

Trump mocked Cuban’s athletic ability, referencing his “lack of clubhead speed,” while Greene took a personal jab, stating that Cuban “has low testosterone” and “looks just like Rachel Maddow.”

While Cuban’s comments were meant as an attack on Trump’s leadership, they instead sparked a strong response from the very women serving in his administration, highlighting the role they play in shaping policy and leading key government agencies.
