Trump economic adviser filmed bashing president's 'crappy' debate performance




https://news.yahoo.com/trump-stephen-moore-crappy-debate-012509189.html

Donald Trump’s economic adviser Stephen Moore was captured on video complaining about the president’s “crappy” debate performance against his Democratic rival Joe Biden.

“It was not a great performance by Trump; in fact, I thought it was a pretty crappy performance,” Moore told a crowd gathered in Washington earlier this month for the “Election Protection Summit” by the Trump-supporting FreedomWorks nonprofit organization.

Moore also conceded that Trump’s first debate against former Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election was similarly “awful.”

“Oh my God, he was so bad in that debate, just awful,” Moore said at the Oct. 2 reception kicking off the conference in a video obtained by Wisconsin watchdog group Documented, which probes corporate influence on public policy.

The economist recalled leaving New York’s Hofstra University after the 2016 debate with his “buddy,” now-White House economic adviser Larry Kudlow. He told the audience, “my friend called me and said, ‘Steve, looks like you and Larry aren’t going to the White House any time soon.’”
