Donald Trump unleashed his disdain for powerful women during an interview on Fox News Thursday morning, aiming vitriol at Senator Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) among others.
Joe Biden’s selection of Harris as his running mate has clearly agitated Trump. But instead of handling it like an adult, Trump has decided to lash out at women at a time when he is bleeding support from women in the suburbs.
Not long after Biden made his announcement, Trump attacked Harris as “nasty,” his favorite word to describe women who criticize him.
Just prior to the interview, Trump took to Twitter to viciously attack MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski.
Very poor morning TV ratings for MSDNC’s Morning Joe, headed by a complete Psycho named Joe Scarborough and his ditzy airhead wife, Mika, and also @CNN, headed by complete unknowns. Congratulations to @foxandfriends on dominating the mornings (thank you President Trump!).

He then went back to attacking Harris.
The Fake News Media is giving @KamalaHarris a free pass despite her Radical Left failures and very poor run in the Democrat Primary. There was nobody meaner or more condescending to Slow Joe, not even me, and yet she quickly evaporated down to almost zero in the polls. Bad!

Trump went on to continue his women-hating rant on Fox, this time trying to portray Harris as an angry black woman.
“Now you have sort of a Mad Woman,” Trump said of Harris, “I call her, because she was so angry and such hatred with Justice Kavanaugh. I mean, I’ve never seen anything like it. She was the angriest of the group and they were all angry. They’re all radical left angry people.”
As if that wasn’t insulting enough, Trump moved to target Pelosi, whom he called “crazy,” and questioned Ocasio-Cortez’s intelligence.
So far this morning, Trump has called
– Kamala Harris “a mad woman,” “angry” and “condescending”
– Mika Brzezinski a “ditzy airhead”
– Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez “not even a smart person”— Daniel Dale (@ddale8) August 13, 2020
Trump now adds that “Nancy Pelosi is stone-cold crazy.” https://t.co/oY91KTVZgx

This is all on top of Trump referring to suburban women as “housewives” in multiple Twitter posts as if he thinks it’s the 1950s.
If Trump thinks women voters are going to come flocking back to his camp after these latest attacks, he’s in for a rude awakening on Election Day.
