The presidential election is only a few days away, and both of the top candidates are on the campaign trail in the final moments, looking to secure those much-needed votes.
Kamala Harris supporter and longtime NBA owner Mark Cuban made a comment on Donald Trump and his relationship with women.
During an appearance on "The View," Cuban said that Trump wasn't able to bring Nikki Haley voters to his side after she dropped out of the race.
"You never see him around strong, intelligent women, ever, it's very simple, they're intimidating to him," Cuban said about Trump.
"He doesn't like to be challenged by them, and you know, Nikki Haley will call him on his nonsense with reproductive rights and how he sees and treats and talks about women."
Trump took to social media on Thursday to respond to Cuban, providing a lengthy message as he disagreed with his assertion.
"Mark Cuban, a really dumb guy, who thinks he's 'hot stuff' but he's absolutely nothing, is now out there saying that I don't surround myself with strong women," Trump said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"Actually, he is very wrong, I surround myself with the strongest of women - With the understanding that ALL women are great, whether strong or not strong."
Trump then attacked Cuban personally, saying that the billionaire "called [him] incessantly" while he was in office.
"In any event, that affected him greatly, because he's a very insecure guy, and a MAJOR LOSER, always has been and always will be! Nobody likes him, nobody respects him, and he's unattractive both inside and out," Trump added.
"He should go back to talk about the person he was forced to support, because I didn't want it, Lyin' Kamala Harris."
Trump said that "all strong women, and women in general" should be upset about Cuban's statement, ending his message by referring to Cuban as "weak."
This latest back-and-forth between the two is the latest in a long line of insults they've traded with one another, dating back to Cuban mulling over whether to run for office himself.
