Oh Goodie


WaPo:

Larry Kudlow on Wednesday accepted an offer from President Trump to head the White House’s National Economic Council, according to three people familiar with the decision.

Kudlow had been seen as the front-runner, but Trump formally offered Kudlow the job Wednesday to replace former Goldman Sachs executive Gary Cohn, who resigned last week, largely over a fight over imposing tariffs that he lost.

Kudlow, 70, is described by White House officials as someone who connects with the president personally and politically. Kudlow, born and raised in New Jersey, shares with Trump a hard-charging personality and a fondness for being a media figure and both have hosted television programs. Kudlow has also been an informal Trump adviser over the past year.
Larry fucking Kudlow.  45* loves the guy because Kudlow is good TV - fake lord have mercy.

 Get ready for some Baghdad Bob-level happy talk about 5 or 6% GDP growth - which won't happen, which will be used as "evidence" to rationalize more tax cuts and deregulation.
