And Kudlow is the “blowiest” National economic council director ever.

Letting you know that I coined this term, classifying it as a “Kudlow cocaine addict word”.

Trump won’t be happy with this. Kudlow needed to proclaim it’s the growthiest economy in the history of mankind.

Idjit.

And yet adjusted for inflation, the Dow Jones is exactly flat.

Kudlow is just too hip for me…

We are currently governed by the dumbiest administration in the history of the Republic.

the “growthiest” economy America has seen in nearly 20 years.

Thanks, Obama.

It sounds like he ripped off Colbert’s “truthiness” which if you remember, does not mean 'truth".

Enjoy it, while it lasts…

Translation: Everything’s about to collapse! Sell! Sell!

Or frothiest. (homage to Alan Greenspan)

“Growthiest”?
Larry Kudlow has the “cocainiest” vocabulary I have ever heard. It’s like snorting up Dr. Seuss with a $100 bill.

steviedee111 · October 17, 2018, 6:30pm

If you’re going to mention cocaine and cartoons in the same breath you have to go with Rocky and Bullwinkle, or maybe Beany & Cecil.

Is Kudlow auditioning for the Colbert show?

ottnott · October 17, 2018, 7:01pm

Meh. Come back when we have data on year-over-year growth where the tax cuts are in place both years.

bashful · October 17, 2018, 7:19pm

What’s the betting that he’s trademarked the word and is going to come after all non-rightwing media for licensing costs?

ghost · October 17, 2018, 7:31pm

Remember when these kinds of words were only found in Stephen Colbert satiric comedy bits?

lastroth · October 17, 2018, 7:37pm

Oh please we are not eve at the half way point of this maladministration. With the number of folks leaving and the number of folks still needed we can, no I insist we will go lower. Just you wait and see.

That’s what I thought too – and Kudlow is just too bleeping stupid to understand that truthiness means “really quite false”. And “growthy” means “the economy is quite near the crapper.”
