Never Ever Right

Larry Kudlow is the director of the National Economic Council for President Donald Trump and the Captain Peter "Wrong Way" Peachfuzz of Economics. He is always wrong. He was wrong when he was an economic advisor to Ronald Reagan. He was wrong when he was a CNBC TV host. He was wrong when he was an economic consultant to Bear Stearns and he does not limit his wrongness to matters of finance. He was a leading exponent of the U.S. invasion of Iraq, proclaiming it a dead certainty that Saddam Hussein had those Weapons of Mass Destruction that no one was ever able to find.

Kudlow was a major advocate of the Trump tax cut for the wealthy, insisting it would bring the deficit way, way down. He's been insisting lately that it's working but no one else seems to think that. Politifact just awarded his claims the coveted "Pants on Fire" designation.
