Former Trump economic advisor Larry Kudlow ignored the pain being inflicted on the country by Trump’s horrific tariffs and used the stock market destruction to promote his love of tax cuts.
This is Disaster Capitalism at its worst.
Kudlow opened his program by having Jerry Willis highlight the damage Trump’s tariffs had done. While she went through every segment that was in the red, Kudlow offered no opinions. He was mute.
Kudlow was waiting in the wings like a filthy hyena to spring his latest moronic idea on his viewers.
With a straight face he said, “How about a tariff dividend for taxpayers?”
WTF?
KUDLOW: President Trump’s trade reciprocity policy is, in my judgment, exactly the right approach to level the playing field and fight the predatory export policies from so many of our so-called trading partners.
The US economy was booming before Trump took office, but reality is not allowed in the MAGAverse.
Kudlow then went on to project what he hoped companies might do facing this crisis.
“Now the White House is estimating that the increase in American tariff charges could yield roughly 600 billion dollars a year,” he said..
Wow, Kudlow did admit that some economists believe Trump is weakening the economy, but he has a solution. Tax cuts!
KUDLOW: So here’s a solution. There’s more than enough tariff revenue to lower taxes. Take that 600 billion in tariff charges and turn it over to taxpayers.
