"Just go back to school, we can do that," Kudlow told reporters on Friday."And you know, you can social distance, you can get your temperature taken, you can be tested, you can have distancing -- come on, it's not that hard.
Any reductions in federal funding would hit schools hard, and re-opening in the fall while taking precautions to limit the spread of the virus could come with a steep price tag. The average district may have to spend an additional $1.8 million to institute and adhere to health and safety protocols, according to a joint estimate by the School Superintendents Association and the Association of School Business Officials International.
Kudlow doesn't know what he is talking about on anything. Just please shut the hell up.
Really? Has this man ever seen the inside of a classroom with 20+ kids in it?
You go! If it’s not that hard.
Angela Rye for Vice President of the Democratic Party 2020
This clown doesn’t deserve a ventilator when he gets the corona & is in the ICU. That ventilator should be earmarked for a brave heroic deserving kid, mom, dad, uncle, aunt, teacher, healthcare worker, frontline worker
C'mon Larry..it's near impossible to socially distance 20/25/30 people in a 350 or so sq foot room. You are a putz
Vapid Elitist Kudlow living w/in his Trump Grifter Clan bubble w/unltd testing, immediate results, private transport, & other taxpayer-funded necessities & perks where there are no kids & where all the corrupt crooks are awash in $$ is whining that it’s all not so hard. FU all.
That's what she said
Larry Kudlow needs to shut up.
School testing plans and capacity? WH should lead by example.
If it’s “not that hard” why are so many having trouble doing this OUT OF SCHOOL?!!!!!
What a dope, these are kids not robots.
Unless larry_kudlow is going to magically double the classroom space how does he expect students to socially distance? Not to mention all the other logistics, procedures, etc that must be put in place.
How the hell you going to social distance in a classroom with 30 students in one room
This guy must be delirious. He needs to go away, just like Trump.
This thread shows that hate for anyone in the Trump administration (a.k.a. TDS) trumps science.
The way I see it is if you don’t go back to school, teachers will be the big loser. Kids can be home schooled or choose an online school. Going to be a lot of educators without jobs as we discover that kids can learn from home.
I want Kudlow to ride the bus, stand in line, and spend the first week with all the kids.
He must not have or ever had kids.
Kinda like reopening wasn’t that hard for you? 130,000 dead people would think different!
Send your kids maybe if Trump gives an executive order and makes masks mandatory well consider itvpeople are just getting infected now you want our kids to get infected Trump fix this be a leader....
Apparently he's never been in an Early Childhood, special ed class, or most elementary classes. It is hard to social distance yourself from a student who needs hand/hand assistance or to ignore the 5yr old that wants to give you a hug. Come on, man. It will be beyond hard.
I would like to see you in a classroom of kids. Specially how there is over crowding in most of all the classes from kindergarten to high school.
This is also the man who said Corona vIrusus was over 3 months ago. Why take his advice on anything?
No! It isn’t safe for children or teachers to go back to school.
Another bumbling idiot who thinks he’s in 1950 that is simple to go back to school while the virus is going on. A bumbling idiot, some New York City schools students populations are 2000 to over 3000. We are not in Mayberry small town.
Thn put him in the teacher seat for 1 week and lets see he is an idiot
When was the last time he was in the hallways of a 6A high school. Social distancing can’t happen! 🤦🏻♀️
Kudlow must RESIGN after his comments re:opening schools NOW!!!
Really let’s see your family do it
You aced snorting, if I recall.
Let the educators decide! Schools are nothing but cootie kitchens! Keep teachers and students safe!
Sorry but why do we care what an economic advisor thinks? Definitely not his field
Why are economists trying to guide the conversation of education? Stay in your lane!
If schools have trouble controlling a lice outbreak htf do you think they'll be able to contain a vivid outback
People are waiting in 10 hour line ups to be tested in the US, so how are kids going to simply be tested and have temps checked every morning? Are they providing these resources? I hate living so close to the US, I’m so sorry you guys have to deal with that horrible nonsense.
It's most apparent that,like his disgraceful boss(Trump),White House Economic Adviser Larry Kudlow doesn't know the severity of the ever ominous Cvd19 pandemic crisis in the US!Sacrifice school-kids for the sake of unlikely reelection?
He has no knowledge about class size, hallways, buses and children in general. If he did have knowledge he would know that there is not a safe way to bring children and staff into a school setting. School age children and adults should not be used as an experiment.
Larry is invited to my classroom during the first week of school. Last year I had 30 students in my period 1 class. treasonweasel
Larry be like...
3 schools on my campus...how do you just propose going back to school? Let me guess - It's not that hard.....
I teach high school special education and the “it’s not that hard” statement is so dumb it made me laugh right out loud. Tell a kid with autism or severe ADHD to keep a mask on it’s just not gonna be as simple as just do it but we do need to figure something out
larrykudlow2 is a disgrace to CNN. DUMP THIS GARBAGE PERSON!
You know how kids normally bring sickness home? Yeah they'll be bringing home covid this time. Good luck getting kids to do all of that
He has never taught a kindergarten class ... or for that matter a high school class!
Seems pretty hard for dear leader ... everyone around him is getting sick!
He might think that’s true, but he’s never lived in a world where the people around him are involved with regular schools
What about if you are asymptomatic and do not present a temperature but look healthy and acting normal? Millions of people are walking around like this; then what?
Anytime someone says “Just do....” something shows there was absolutely NO THOUGHT or evidence behind the statement and is demeaning to the intended recipient.
Theres no where here enough teachers to do what yall are talking about...adults dont wear masks n you expect kids to wear them. You wanna keep desks 6 feet apart in already crowded classrooms newsflash it's not possible...keep the kids at home until theres a fool proof plan
It’s amazing that it’s White Men who are advising for kids in schools where most of the Teachers are Females who are against in classroom instructions!Could it be a Control thing?
Where do the municipalities get the funds to implement the necessary changes? States are tapped out or very close. The Feds don't want to join in. Afraid they might have to accept responsibility. Kudlow: I will blieve when I see your grandkids in public school next to mine. FUBAR
Why doesn't Larry Kudlow take Barron's hand and walk him into school? The President must practice what he is preaching to American parents and teachers.
He's right. It's not that hard in theory. However, Trump supporters refuse to wear masks, don't believe in the virus, and insult those who do.
Hong Kong schools opened ...social distancing wearing masks...UPDATE: Hong Kong schools are closing due to Covid cases rising. Your president needs to be removed from office. He is killing people!!! Maybe not on 5th ave but by sheer incompetence. COVID19 VP
Nuts
Yes, just let them Eat Cake!
you can be tested. where have I heard that before?
LIAR
🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️😡ugh
This shows how little respect he has for teachers, and public school systems. We are throwing teachers to the virus, just the way we threw our nurses. Then we will call them “hero’s” and give them a flyover.
You are an idiot. I say the same to you as I did to criminal-in-chief...send your child to a public school with 35+ students per room, no opportunity for distancing, refusing to mask because “my mom/dad don’t wear one, why should I”, etc. Children and teachers are at risk.
Has he ever set foot in a city classroom? Utter lunacy!
I can hear the ice cubes clinking in the glass just reading that.
Losers like Kudlow never really change . Once a bum always a bum. He is the one who needs to go back to school..maybe at like remedial science health class for 7th graders to start.
Where will all these people send their kids and grandkids in the fall?
This man is an idiot.
Yup kudlow tell that to little kids to social distance and mask up. Love to see you as a 1st grade teacher. It’s not that hard.
Larry kudlow has no Economic Degree. Wow in the middle of a Depression.
If Kudlow thinks 'it's not that hard' go sit in a few classrooms. Does he have children, grandchildren who will be put in danger? I'm sure not, they're probably in private school not subject to this idiotic idea!!
U can get Covid and die. What’s the big deal? You can infect ur parents, they can die. Big deal. Your grandparents can get it and die. Who cares?
So why the fuck does the country with 4 percent of the world’s population have 25 percent of its deaths? Apparently, it is hard!
IDEA. Let trump supporters start in person school. See how that goes.
Seriously, it’s not hard. I mean, it’s only kids. Cmon...why even talk about it? Just go back.
Oh Larry.
If 67,000 pediatricians say it’s okay then I’ll agree it okay. You can’t say “listen to the experts” and then when they listen cry about it. Y’all sound like a bunch of Democrats.
And, some of you can die. It’s easy.
controlavirus is a hoax
It’s like they don’t even care anymore. Just go back to the way it was before Jan and ignore all the dead bodies. They aren’t even trying to fix it.
Teens are Petri dishes of germs. I even told my teen how gross he is due to the drunk sharing his female friend group does (which his girlfriend is a part of).
Maybe you could send Larry to monitor the transition back to school at a school in a district where the case numbers are still rising.
I’m sorry, why the fuck are we still hearing this kind of shit coming from the loser who told us the virus was “contained” a few months back...
Do not listen to this man. His golden idol is $$$. He does NOT care about your children!!!
Krusty Kud
Meanwhile his grand children will probably be homeschooled. I don’t get it.
Tell that to the people in AZ, they’ve been waiting several hours in the blazing sun for a test.
It’s the same as saying “C’mon it’s just a virus, no big deal”. And that’s how we came to this. We8ve sacrificed senior and unprivileged citizens and now we’re pushing to sacrifice children. Should economy overides moral obligations?
Anyone who lists taking your temperature as a measure for curbing the spread of this virus is woefully behind in information about transmission of COVID-19. Infectivity is often highest before any symptoms appear, at least for 2 days and some are saying 6; some never get fever.
I would love to put him in a room full of 5 year olds and tell them to social distance. 🙄
Must have been homeschooled. Badly.
Sure, if you go sit in the classroom every day with the teachers and the kids
Why are we listening to this dmfck?
Not that hard... Well right now with dumbass in chief it's pretty hard to do anything. We barely have this coronavirus contained and they want to have a bunch of kids going to school and most likely keep the spread going. What morons.
When was he last in a classroom with 34 other high schooler? When you put 35 in a classroom distancing mush less social distancing is impossible.
Was this lunatic ever a child, or did he ever raise children? Young kids do not social distance. And how do you put 25-30 kids in a classroom where they can work 6-8 feet apart? Completely and utterly clueless!!
This fucker has been correct exactly not at all since mid-February.
Are children not human? The only non humans are the t rump administration
Yeah, not that hard when people actually do it.
Said the man who never taught!
Does he have small kids or grandkids?
Has this man spent even 5 minutes observing a kindergarten class? Imbecile.
That scenario reminds me of this
Does he mean like in Texas and Florida?
If it's not so hard, let's see if he can handle an elementary school class-have them all wear masks consistently, avoid touching their mouths/noses/eyes, stay 6' apart, avoid touching each other, avoid touching common teaching equipment, avoid touching Larry...No, allow that
Oh God another genious
Too bad your boss failed at doing just that.
“We have contained this. I won’t say [it’s] airtight, but it’s pretty close to airtight,” said Larry Kudlow on February 25th. Do not listen to this clown.
larry_kudlow Do you know what that sounds like? PRIVILEGE! What about under funded schools? What about under funded families? What about special needs kids? It’s not so easy for a lot of school districts and a lot of families?
“The best people?” What a simplistic ass!
Clueless
It has come more apparent that there is no administration. Just a Dictator with pawns.
Two words ok boomer
I have 30-34 kids per class, five rows of six desks one row of four, the desks have to be touching in the rows and each row is only about 2.5 feet apart. That takes up my entire classroom. Social distancing isn’t possible with that many kids.
Larry has spoken....must be fact!!!
Has this dolt ever tried to social distance K-2 kids? Good luck with that...
Tell that to my 8 year old daughter who has type 1 diabetes.
You send your children and grandchildren to school first! You and your corrupt administration send your children back to school
Says the man that hasn’t been in a public school lately.
Maybe Kudlow should go spend a week in a Fl or Tx school when it first opens up and see if he says the same thing. You aren't social distancing that many kids unless half of them stay home. It's always so damn easy to make a sacrifice out of others than it is yourself.
No job is too tough for the person that doesn’t have to do it
It seems to have been impossible so far.
Crazy
Is this how he talked to his kids when they were potty training? LoL
He is a LOSER! Let him go sit in a Class Room !!! I am so SICK of them ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How many bus trips will you need to keep all the students six feet apart?
When was the last time this clown went into a school, much less a classroom? Think about what you’re TELLING, not asking parents to do. Let’s make a deal, why don’t YOU use your family and all of their offsprings as lab rats. Lead by example.
And I like to see his son Barron go to school as well....
Wow, you arrogant ahole! I vote we give Larry his own classroom of first graders and he can show all teachers how easy it is!!!!😡
Rich old man says, “Just do it.”
Let's just put 30 of them in a classroom for 8 hrs a day for a month in Florida and see what happens. Our children are not their lab rats.
Ok boomer so in that case give school the rapid testing that you have access too. If not dhit the fuck up.
Alright Larry, time to go back to school then, bud.
Seems this whole admin. is anti-science experts. When they need heart surgery, they should have their car mechanic handle it.
Nope! You'd a classroom the size of a gym for social distance for each class.
Sounds like they are expecting the school system to do an awful lot.
He's unqualified for his job.
Kids are out there mixing with each other anyway. Make it count for something! BTW - my wife is a teacher!
Tell that to preK and Kindergarten children, who love to hug and don't understand a lot of what is going on.
Who asked him for that advice? Kudlow: stay in your lane you arrogant busybody; sick families = sick economy. These Covid-19 surges mean you have your own work to do!
So....how do you social distance on buses? Start bus routes at 2:00AM to accommodate everyone? What if a teacher is out and there are no subs? Really well thought out planning!!!
Are you bloody nuts omg
Now Larry’s an epidemiologist?
Not hard does not mean safe last I checked. When's the last time he's visited a public school at any grade?
Something tells me this guy have not been anywhere near a 2nd grade classroom.
Children social distancing? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
F a.h.
I wouldn’t think too much about what any moron from the White House says considering the shit that spews from their mouths on a daily basis
Is Kudlow hitting the bottle again?
Meanwhile,their own kids are homeschooled!
This government is all about getting Trump re-elected again at the cost of students, teachers, and the general public’s lives. They are not for the American people.
Show me a gang of 5-7 yrs olds who are capable of this. I’ll wait. 🧐
I can't perceive that how can they adopt this terrible decision and how can American govt. shove of their little children to verge of death even knowing worsened.
It is hard for WH ”adults” to wear a mask but except five years old to distance themselves from each other.
The daycare centers have been open here since the 3rd week of June, so far I've not read of any Covid issues coming from this.
You can be tested. Ha ha ha. What a joke in America. You would have thought by now, in this country. Testing would have improved totally and no more shortages of PPE, but well....
a virus germ doesnt have distance or boundrys or whoops, at this time, the need is protect your child and your family, i recently went to los angeles city and county i was very surprise of the foul odors, and wasteful environments,surprised that people n not washing streets.
Gee, thank you Professor Kudlow
Put him in a cage.
Yeah right.
That's what your wife tells her friends. TrumpIsATraitor
Tell congress to send their children into mass public settings first.
You are no clue
Yes, yes it is when you have a bunch of fuckheads in charge who haven't a fucking clie about what's going on or worse know and don't give a fuck!
cnn why aren’t you reporting on all the summer camps that had to close due to Covid. School? Nope.
Not that hard? Seriously? He talks like we have a handle on this virus outside the classroom. This administration lives in a dream world while the rest of us live in the real one. VOTE THEM OUT.
Holy ignorance batman. Infrastructure? Safety protocols? Access to tests? And have you spent 5 minutes with 8 year olds?
Y’all know that Kudlow’s career has been distinguished by his always being wrong and never being right. I’ve been watching him for years. Never right, always wrong.
Has Kudlow ever taught an elementary class before
Lmao! Guess he has never been in a school
Efwit
The way cnn post things and words things and does their word play it’s all anti trump propoganda 24/7 it never ends. Years upon years non stop trump hating. Do you never trumpers even. Realize you don’t think for yourself ?
This guy is clueless. You can't put 30 kids in a small room 6 ft apart. It's just not possible. And how do you change classes? The halls are packed. Mr. Economy needs to get his head out of Trumps ass.
How, exactly, would this stooge have even the foggiest idea?
This man needs to be the risk taker and teach!
It's clearly been a VERY FUCKING LONG TIME since this terrible excuse for a human went to school if he thinks distancing is an option in classrooms that are already overflowing!
Guess it’s been quite a while since he’s stepped into a public school. 🤔 guess overcrowding has gone away since covid? 🤔 guess inner city school got bigger since covid? I hate idiots who think just because he says something it should magically get done without $ to back it up
(insert sigh)...
Foff
Why, his grandchildren’s private school can do this. Why does everyone think this is so harrrrrd
So he can join them if its so safe
I’m so ready for this guy to just go away....every time he talks he sounds so ridiculous
This Phil Hartman character is too much!
This administration is so out of touch with reality. And they obviously don’t give a goddamn about anyone. I can’t wait for Nov 3rd so we can vote to retake this country back from the most inept and corrupt president and administration ever.
He can come sit in my class and take covid tests for me...
TrumpKillsUS
Apparently this shit bag hasn't been to a Target recently.
Far right terrorist trying to send our kids into a spreading slow death.
Larry is wearing a mask is not that difficult why the Trump administration do not do it Why Trump after 5 month still nobody have seen him wearing a mask You and Trump do not care about tje children just care about the economy because is the only issues Trump can run on Shameful
He is stupid
I can’t believe these people don’t understand the level of project management involved here. I’m so disappointed that Donald Trump calls himself a CEO without knowing how to do this. That’s what a CEO does all day.
He’s right
Send dRump back too!
Totally agree but the Democrats and media don’t want that for some reason. Does it interfere with their voter fraud scheme?
Can't wait until these guys are thrown out of their hermetically sealed work places. Let's see them scrounge for tests. Or wait 6 hours in line to get tested. They deserve to be cut off.
All those in Trump cabinet reason, talks politically not morally.
My kid would say silly man
Larry’s back on the blow. He’s got that sweet WH money coming in now. So sad to see an old man lose himself like this.
1. To fight against the Chinese virus, should we actively respond or choose to escape. (If it is one year or more) 2. The society of Japan and South Korea has not stopped. How did they do it? ! …………
They dont care...
It is like the generals send the troops through the battlefields in World War I!
………… 3. Chinese virus invasion is no less than a war! At present, the Democratic Party should not seize the opportunity to destroy the country and seek private gain!
Assholes who know nothing about what’s going on here...get off your high horse and start walking on the streets to learn the truth about our hardships.
Then he can take trump baby. He needs lots of work in spelling, math, language, especially HISTORY, civics, speech, and maybe spend some quality time with the school psychologist several times a week!
Larry Kudlow, how long ago did he lose his brain. That's the dumbest remark I've heard about opening schools equal to Trump. To hell with the kids and teachers, we need our numbers to look better. Larry it's not that hard to step down, please take the gang of misfits with you.
They can’t even control a lice outbreak in an elementary school. How does this fool think it’s ok to send kids back during a pandemic?
Kids should have never been kept out of school--time for all schools to OPEN!
Either he's never had kids or it's been that long since he's had 4-15 year olds follow rules, let alone 30 of them.... am I right barbasaur
And this moron is tested how often?
This from the same man who went on numerous political shows after downing a handle of scotch. Yeah...I’m going to follow Fauci and not some drunk political tumor.
Do 4 core classes only. 1/2 students for 4 hours in am -other 1/2 4 hours in the afternoon. Cuts class size. Gets in the basics. English, math, science, history/geography. SchoolReopening SchoolChoice GovAbbott DanCrenshawTX JohnCornyn tedcruz
Hmmm can we get him drug tested🤔🤔🤔
USA is fucked up
Take your own advise larry_kudlow. Just go back to school, so you don't sound ignorant, it's not hard.
The absolute morons of trump’s admin are not even pretending to govern anymore.
This dotard does understand that class change alone is reminiscent of cattle in chutes, right?
Poor old Kudlow clearly has not been in a crowded school - it highlights a lack of care towards our most vulnerable ppl
This doctors does understand that class change alone is reminiscent of cattle in chutes, right?
Mr. Kudlow, how bout you go first!
How are they going to initiate social distancing with over-crowding of classrooms and drills? Will everyone be wearing a mask the whole day? I doubt these will be even considered.
Canceled football to
I wish the fucking people saying things like this would get the covid it fucking hurts
Kudlow is another prime example of how corrupt and out of touch with reality the GOP has become.
Irresponsible 😓
When I think of 'It's not that hard ', I definitely think of larry_kudlow .
I want to know when’s the last time any of these fools have had a child in PUBLIC school. Bruh have you seen how these adults have handled this pandemic
A recent study showed that presymptomatic people are actually MORE contagious (shed more virus) than people exhibiting symptoms. Basically dumb donald wants every school to be a Petri dish.
You first, Larry.
I teach 3-5 year olds with autism. Explain please
Larry is volunteering to be a substitute teacher. Please sign him up immediately.
Does Kudlow have grandchildren - would love to know if they’ll be attending school in the fall!?
has Larry met a child before? Good luck trying to get kindergarteners to socially distance
But he also says no more federal help with extended pandemic unemployment benefits or anymore stimulus packages. larry_kudlow is fool.
I don’t have enough words to communicate how disgusting this man is. Our children are the reason for everything and our most precious and sacred responsibility. Sending them back to school like disposable shock troops in this pandemic is beyond evil.
This guy is a cretin. How the hell did he get that job? Was pee wee Herman out of town?
Let them eat covid
And if he had school-aged children, he’d be singing a different tune.
Let's have Kudlow teach the first classes and we'll see how optimistic he feels about students returning to school.
I’m sure Larry’s family’s kids will be in the front row of a public school in Texas or Arizona or Florida
If it’s not that hard, why won’t your Royal Orangeness even wear a mask ?
You can take an enema.
From someone who has no school age children . .
Kids need to be able to go to school. The demage is already done. Kids are suffering , anxiety and depression, weak learning
🖕
In all of my schooling, I was rarely further than 2 feet away from another student unless we were in a field for PE. What do you mean it's not that hard?
They can't make adults do these things, who says they can make kids?
F this guy forever.
“Almighty Dollar” taking on new meaning these days.
When’s the last time he had a kid in school or was a school administrator?
No masks? Afraid to contradict the boss?
Idiot
Let's do this: GOP kids go back to school. Democrat kids lose another year.
He is correct
