Kudlow: Economy Is Fundamentally Sound; If We Can End the Virus, We Will Come Back Strong

‘And I think business will come back strong’

EXCERPT:

KUDLOW: "Well, look, the first thing, Sandra, is really to implement this Phase III assistance plan, to implement it, execute it and make sure it gets to all the men and women and families and businesses and so forth. That’s really priority number one. We must make it work. I think we have gotten off to a good start. Again, it is unparalleled assistance. The second point I’ll make is this pandemic and the mitigation effects essentially interrupted what was a very strong economic boom from prior policies and, you know, the private sector coming alive. I say that because I believe the economy is fundamentally sound. If we can end or close, you know, gradually remove this interruption, then I think people will come back strong. And I think business will come back strong."
