Fox Host Has Confused On-Air Reaction To Bad Trump Polls: 'I'm Not Sure Why This Is'

Larry Kudlow appeared genuinely confused Tuesday about the public's dissatisfaction with how President Donald Trump is handling inflation.
Fox Business host Larry Kudlow appeared oddly confused Tuesday about the public’s dissatisfaction with Donald Trump, citing a RealClearPolitics average of several polls showing 61% of Americans disapprove of how the president is handling inflation.
The “Kudlow” host discussed the matter with Fox News contributor and ex-Trump White House adviser Kellyanne Conway, praising the president’s foreign policy and crediting the GOP’s “big, beautiful bill” for what he called “pretty remarkable” economic growth.
“But, but, but, but. Interestingly, and I want to get your take on this, polling-wise, he’s doing very poorly on the economy,” Kudlow said. “Now, there may be reasons for this, but I will just say the averages from RealClearPolitics on the economy, Mr. Trump is underwater.”
“And on inflation, again, the average of RealClearPolitics, and there are a lot of good polls inside that average, he’s underwater by 25 points: 61% disapprove, 36% approve,” he added. “I’m not sure why this is, but those are not good numbers going into the midterms.”
Kudlow, a former economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and director of the National Economic Council during Trump’s first term, notably issued an apology last year on the air after wrongly predicting economic disaster under then-President Joe Biden.
