Kudlow: If you doubt my expert statement, that's class-warfare.

“I don’t really think we had a 10-year economic expansion,” Kudlow responded. “In fact, my view is before President Trump was elected, what we had was not only the weakest recovery but in the old days, we would call it a growth recession.”

...

When the reporter pointed out that those Indianans are in “pain” because of the actions of their federal government, Kudlow tried to minimize the damage it does to companies in the Midwest.

“I appreciate the concern, absolutely,” the adviser said. “But I will say so far the pain has been de minimis, really very little.”

“With all respect,” Ryssdal replied, “that’s easy for you to say sitting here on the second floor of the West Wing of the White House.”

Kudlow then appeared to take issue with the reporter’s comment.

“Now, don’t class warfare me or anything like that,” he told Ryssdal, adding that the White House knows “quantitatively” that the tariffs have had an “almost unmeasurable impact” on gross domestic product.

And WH-numbers are trustworthy. Just look at their faked report on US poverty.

1. Oh well, disagreeing with Kudlow is "class warfare", we better not disagree with Kudlow anymore...

[ProfessorGAC]

2. Kind of Hard Not To

Since he's been wrong about everything (provably) for 30 years, how are we supposed to ever agree?
Disagreement is our only option!

[ck4829]

3. But... but... when Republicans say X is "class warfare", we shouldn't do X anymore and ever again!1!

So we shouldn't disagree with Kudlow, debunk what he says, or support dissenting opinions against him; so starting now you either think he is infallible or you're a class warfare socialist!!1!

*wink*

4. of course it was slow. the publikkkans demanded georgee's tax cuts to be extended. did nothing to

help for 8 years. did all they could to tank the economy to destroy obama. i saw what they did.

[True Blue American]

19. President Obama

Had to wait until the Bush tax cuts expired, they were for 10 years.

He spent his first two years trying to get the ACA. Something even Nixon wanted. And now that Republicans are trying to dismantle the people have decided they want it,too.

This is really the most corrupt Congress in my memory and that is pretty long.

Started with Newt Gingrich , Dick Army and Tom DeLay and their flunkies. Has now reached the level of corrption that gave us Trump.

We can not depend on Congress or the Supreme Court any more. Only out Intelligence Agencies

[pansypoo53219]

23. the GOP got the tax cuts extended, but obama did get unemployment extended for it.

[Corgigal]

5. You just want to steal

whatever the middle class has left. Russia like. It's not a class thing, it's a greed thing.

[2naSalit]

21. +1

[LuckyCharms]

6. And then Kudlow shoved his face into a cocaine filled cereal bowl.

[muriel_volestrangler]

7. "Class warfare"? Which party has been shouting "elite" and "Washington insiders" for decades

even when they are the "Washington insiders"? It's the one Kudlow has shackled himself to. Take a look at Trump whipping up the mob eery other day and decide who's indulging in "class warfare".

8. Like school on the weekend, no class

[pazzyanne]

9. Class warfare? Guess what "class" Kudlow thinks he is in! He's wrong!

We have scum running our country at this time. You can't be any lower class that that cabal! Don't know about you, but I am ready for the fight.

[uponit7771]

10. We were in a jobs depression due to trickle down economics and deregulation

[Bernardo de La Paz]

11. White is black & black is white in Trumponomics. 2nd quarter was goosed by rushing to beat tariffs.

That's measurable.

This is measurable too:

[True Blue American]

12. Kudlow has never been right

In either his predictions or evaluations on the economy.

Only Fox would keep him.

[empedocles]

14. As Kudlow gets more extreme

Will his business channel people get more extreme?

[spanone]

13. kudlow. what a partisan dipshit. did don tell you to say that, asshole?

[Lonestarblue]

15. The only competent people in this administration are the ones Trump trashes daily.

Except for Jeff Sessions and his suck ups, the DOJ and the intelligence groups are competently going about their work and not enriching themselves at the taxpayers’ expense. I am so beyond tired of Trump’s troop of pampered idiots like Kudlow, Ross, and Mnuchin. I shudder to think about two more years of this because even if Trump somehow leaves office, Pence will either keep these people or just choose equally bad ones.

[True Blue American]

20. Amen!

[Monsieur_Grumpe]

16. almost unmeasurable?

Then why are they spending 12 million dollars on farm welfare?

[KPN]

17. That's 12 Billion isn't it?

[lastlib]

18. It's only 'class warfare' when we fight back.....

The REAL class warfare is what the 1% has been doing to US for decades. THEIR income isn't stagnant, and it sure as he&ll isn't declining. THEIR jobs aren't getting shipped overseas. THEY are not living paycheck to paycheck, hoping that costs (like health insurance) don't go up. THEY are buying yachts and vacation mansions, while WE hope that someday we can have a small house. THEY are buying $15,000 ostrich jackets while WE hope our blue jeans hold up another month.

F&uck you Kudlow, and the 1% horse you rode in on!

[dalton99a]

22. Precisely

[pecosbob]

24. And WH-numbers are trustworthy. Just look at their faked report on US poverty.

or the pre-determined findings of their so-called voter fraud investigation. Absolutely trust anything this administration says...not.
