Larry Kudlow defends Trump: He's not backing down on tariffs

In an interview with CNN's Brianna Keilar, White House chief economic adviser Larry Kudlow said President Donald Trump misunderstood a question at the G7 summit where he appeared to say he had second thoughts about the China tariffs. Kudlow said Trump was never backing down on tariffs and, in fact, considered even higher tariffs. #CNN #News

Larry Kudlow: "I've spent millions of dollars on cocaine in my life and have been wrong about the economy at every turn.."

How can Trump be having 2nd thoughts when he's never had a 1st thought?

[auntiepha]

Kudlow is the only TV economist who is always drunk and always wrong.

[rassoul]

73 year old native English speaker needs people to translate what he is saying all the time, weird

[Leonaza]

I am skeptical of claims of second thoughts from a person whom has yet to demonstrate a first thought.

[viakhnine]

The World is holding its breath to see what a mad man will do next.

OMG! This Kudlow guy is completely off his rocker, he is constantly saying context, context, context, even if they play video or show a tweet.
He needs to lay off of something.

Man, I don't feel sorry for people like Larry Kudlow, but spinning for this president is an impossible task.

[Leonaza]

He's got second thoughts. He's always got second thoughts. In fact, he's got the best second thoughts...the biggest second thoughts. They're great. The best second thoughts in the history of the world, believe me.

Some Mental gymnastics by Trump defenders.

[vonsuthoff]

Fine Trump. Don't back down.
In the mean time, the stock market won't go up!

[laithr]

He would not be six time bankrupt champion, if he was backing down on something.

[Leonaza]

He had “first thoughts”? Highly unlikely. Let alone second thoughts.

[jsmcguireIII]

The fake economist struggles to defend the con man - the world laughs.

[sgtbonespurs]

LOL - Kudlow is in way over his head in this interview. His lies, spin, and doubletalk didn't cut it this time. Good job Brianna.

White House Memo: When cornered with a tough question, interrupt with "let me finish"

[wesleyrodgers]

Trump cutting off his nose to spite his face, but he's two faced so still one nose to go.

[Leonaza]

His second thoughts are always, "Who can I blame for this?"

[alankirby]

Sounds like he’s back tracking.... realised America would be the big looser

[brandonreed]

Maybe you're just lying Kudlow. She showed freaking video that really can't be taken out of context.
