Larry Kudlow: This would drive economic growth

Pete Navarro's economic policies are not good for Americans!

Why is the deficit going up then? Americans Federal funding is being cut and the deficit is going up. They are bankrupting the country!

Fix Larry's Tie !!................................................

Kudlow is a complete idiot as proven many times over the years. Kudlow supporting the Laffer Curve and Trickle Down is ridiculous. BTW I worked at a muni bond firm as investment banker, this firm hired Laffer an advisor to the firm. Remember this. The yellow liquid tricking down from the elite is not liquid gold.

Bull 💩💩💩💩

The RINOS's need to be REMOVED, forever!

As I recall Paul Volcker (Fed Chairman), disciple of Milton Friedman, answer for inflation was to create frequent artificial recessions by increasing interest rates. Driving up the cost of loans decreased spending. It also increased unemployment by making short term payroll loans more expensive, forcing companies to lay off employees.
This had the added benefit of creating a population of surplus unemployed workers, desperate for regular work/income.
Employers could layoff their more expensive or more troublesome (and labor union) workers, and later hire replacements at entry level wages. Wages could be held down, those who agitated for better wages could simply be discharged the next recession, and never rehired.

So expensive loans, and flat or even declining wages greatly reduced the purchasing power of the lower classes, causing a surplus of unbought goods in the stores, which pressures the reduction of their prices.
This system was dubbed the Natural Anti Inflation Rate of Unemployment (NAIRU). Later for political reasons I assume, it was reworded Non-Accelerating Inflation Rate of Unemployment. Greenspan, who succeeded Paul Volcker as Fed. Chairman, finally determined the ideal unemployment rate was 6.5%.
If unemployment dropped below 6.5% the Fed would start increasing interest rates. However if a Presidential election was imminent, and the sitting President was a Democrat, this would be delayed until after the election (Fed Chairmen were almost always Democrats).
This system was maintained from 1978 through 2016. Trump ended it. He allowed unemployment to drop to 2% with no recessions or inflation.

Of course, what Larry Kudlow, and most everybody else, never seem to notice is the side effect, that the homeless went from very rare to common starting in 1978 & kept growing for 38 years. The homeless began to reduce after 2016 as the tight labor market encouraged both better wages and the rehabilitation of the homeless back into the labor market.

MAGA poor is what we'll all be from all the beautiful deals

What about the tourist economy America?????

Data is showing Tourists are turning their backs on the US as President Trump’s divisive rhetoric leaves them seeking alternative destinations.

Industry leaders said there were growing signs of “Trump Slump 2.0”, with airlines and destinations cutting their forecasts for 2025.

This week New York City reduced its forecast by three million visitors, citing growing negative sentiment toward the US.

It expects two million fewer international visitors and one million fewer domestic arrivals.

Rumsfeld & Cheney..2 great political Hack greedy scumbag
P o s's
Term limits...

This guy is 77 years old. WTF does he care about economic growth? He just says "cut taxes and regulations" for the last 30 years. Retire, you greedy old fart!!!😊😊❤

Kudlow for god sakes retire you old fool. Jesus

House Republican reconciliation bill proposes cuts to Medicaid totaling over $700 billion, according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). These cuts are estimated to lead to the loss of coverage for at least 8.6 million people and a significant increase in the number of people without health insurance and guts SNAP benefits.

EVEN THE FAMILY ASK THE PUBLIC TO BE PATIENCE WITH THIS OLD FOOL!!!

Mark my words if Republicans don’t get this done there will be many looking for a new line of work

Hope they learn it

Taxes cuts always lead to a rise of these economy and tax revenue … But you should notice forget: The rising revenues from economyNEVER paid for the lower revenue of the cuts. Debt increase ALWAYS follwed!

LOL....borrow 9 trillion for a 1% tax cut......will crush America....add in the 30% tax from the GOP.........good luck VooDoo Economics

Shut up, Kudlow.

Has Kudrow ever got anything right?

Trump put the breaks on evonomic growth, pure and simple.

Larry, you are in -
a wing and a prayer territory with his analysis.

Nothing to worry about the Laffer curve will save us 😂.

The Laffer curve is a concept in economics that illustrates the relationship between tax rates and tax revenue. It suggests that starting from a 0% tax rate, increasing taxes will increase government revenue—but only up to a certain point. Beyond that point, higher tax rates actually lead to a decrease in total tax revenue because they discourage work, investment, and production.

In short, the Laffer curve shows there is an optimal tax rate that maximizes revenue without overburdening taxpayers.

Trump's tariffs are bound to exceed the optimal tax rate as tariffs are really a regressive sales tax.

Even if the Laffer curves saves us, for whatever reason, there is always a federal government revenue deficit of $2 trillion a year and it is growing.

What would drive economic growth is if Trump would remove his idiotic tariffs!

The tax cuts help, but only when it ends up in the hands of working Americans. Often those bucks ends up parked on Wall Street and doesn't "stimulate the economy". I know Fox News is all about investing, but for capitalism to work we need consumption too. If nobody spends, then the people who sell go out of business.

The feds got to lower the rate

Trump promised an avalanche of trade deals and MAGA are it up like slop. There is no one more gullible and servile than a Trump supporter.

Another clown show 🤡

Larry!🇺🇸🫡

GOP holdouts will also “deprive” themselves of the majority if they don’t pass the BBB!

And come on. In the 1980's we have all learned that the trickle down effect did NOT do a darn thing.

Like Peter Navarro, Larry Kudlow is another stupid American who does not understand the mechanism of economic growth.

He's right. But... what would also drive economic growth is a new govt and administration. And a BIGLY please ask for a do over.

We made wallmart target who they are today. They are going tobeat most the tariffs

Trump 2028!
Trump 2032!
GUARANTEED!
The next 2 presidential elections are in the bag!

HELLOOOOO. THE TARIFFS ARE TEMPORARY. NO INFLATION. NO RECESSION. Transitory !!

Art Laffer, Steve Moore, Steve Forbes, Larry Kudlow, and Scott Bessent ARE ALWAYS RIGHT !!!

Larry, the Real World out here is hurting and folks need answers and assistance before Any Real Change Occurs, Corporate Greed and Corruption is running rampant, like it or Not !

Kudlow= past time for you to be put out to pasture...

Sure this might help. Trumps plan of bullying the market is way better though. Telling companies to eat the cost or else will work, guaranteed!

BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL! BIG BEAUTIFUL TARIFFS! BIG BUSTED ECONOMY!!! GO LUDLOW!

Great respect for Kudlow and long time fan going back years with his CNBC days. As a strong hawk for US economics and debt and deficits, I’ve wondered about the historical significance of lower taxes generating higher revenue in these modern times. 2008 changed a lot in my mind. If you’re already the largest GDP on Earth and you’re pushing to cut trade globally to force internal growth then that’s a magnificent difference from past arguments and economies implementing the Laffer Curve. I just don’t see how we find synergy with “Laffer” policies for growth and isolationism.

Let’s see, as a union electrician or union pipe fitter in The People’s Republic of Minnesota health benefits are over $1,800/month. The burden rate to hire additional workers being placed on employers is out of control. Our 1st hour on the job is over $300.00/hour. Healthcare is a scam that is costing jobs.

trump is driving a world economic collapse. Every one will see it soon enough.

Is this guy just Trumps buttboy?

Great job Larry ! 🙏🏼🪖

Larry, please explain why the government needs to cut programs in order to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy. You seem to be saying that cutting taxes will stimulate the economy and add to government revenues.

They can only spin weave sugar coat wrap lying kings inane delusional thoughts… you beat us now we DEMS. Are suffering. We knew this would happen. So glad that maga isn’t forced to endure this travesty as well. It’s amazing how this $hit show was surgically used to spare maga. I applaud the brilliance. Have the day you deserve.

Everyone wants to cut taxes for those in need. It's the billionaire class; with their trusts, off-shore accounts and other tax loopholes that don't need more money. Their personal wealth won't necessarily stimulate the economy but their tax cuts could add $4T to the national debt.

Larry, you didn’t mention how much that Big Beautiful Bill will add to the deficit. All you did with that speech was gaslight Americans again.
