Trump hurls insults at Harris, Ocasio-Cortez and other women [View all]

President Trump on Thursday levied a series of personal attacks at prominent female politicians and an MSNBC host, insulting the tone and intelligence of Sen. Kamala Harris (D-Calif.), Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and others in the span of just a couple hours.

The president, in tweets and in an interview with Fox Business Network, singled out Harris, Ocasio-Cortez, Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski. Trump chastised each of them in personal terms, continuing days of attacks on Harris after she was named presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's running mate.

"Now you have a, sort of a mad woman I call her, because she was so angry and such hatred with Justice [Brett] Kavanaugh," Trump told Maria Bartiromo of Fox Business Network, complaining for a third consecutive day about the senator's questioning of his Supreme Court nominee in 2018. "She was the angriest of the group and they were all angry."

Trump tweeted prior to the interview that Harris was getting a "free pass" from the media before criticizing her tone during the Democratic primaries toward presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden.
