Larry Kudlow, director of the National Economic Council, on Sunday defended calling the novel coronavirus outbreak contained just days before large swaths of the country were forced to shelter inside their homes.
In an interview on ABCs This Week, host Martha Raddatz asked the White House adviser why he was predicting weeks, not months of economic turmoil due to the global pandemic.
How can you be sure this economic tragedy wont be longterm if theres not a guarantee people will have jobs to return to? Raddatz said. I dont see how it can be just weeks.
Well, listen, I say that weeks it could be four weeks, it could be eight weeks, Kudlow replied. I say that hopefully and I say that prayerfully. Thats what some of the science experts have been telling us. I dont know if theyll be right.

What are people jumping over this old coke-head wife-beater for, just because he says the duration can be measured in weeks?

The Magistrate
(95,248 posts)Have no idea if he has relapsed. If recollection serves, it was an instance of domestic violence brought it to light. Something to do with a wife and some stairs. But perhaps I am mixing that up with Bill O'Reilly....
Kudlow is a waste of space and oxygen, no better than that idiot Navarro as an economic pundit. Idiocy and ignorance seem a prerequisite for employment by the money laundering grifter Putin put in office here, the cheap thug Trump.
