White House economic advisor Larry Kudlow appeared on Fox News Sunday this morning to dismiss concerns of a recession and say, “We should not be afraid of optimism.”

Guest host Dana Perino — filling in for Chris Wallace — spoke with Kudlow on the economy, the impact of the trade war, whether a tax cut for middle-income families is still on the table.

Towards the end of the interview, she brought up the rather stunning news that Donald Trump has talked about buying Greenland.

Greenland has said it’s not for sale and the president is being widely mocked for the idea.

Kudlow chuckled a bit and said, “It’s developing. We’re looking at it, we don’t know.”

“Denmark owns Greenland. Denmark is an ally. Greenland is a strategic place up there. They’ve got a lot of valuable minerals,” he continued. “I don’t want to predict an outcome, I’m just saying the president, who knows a thing or two about buying real estate, wants to take a look.”

But what many people noted was that Kudlow didn’t seem himself…in fact, he seemed a little drunk.

OMG..I just watched Fox News Sunday and Larry Kudlow was totally drunk. On a Sunday Morning..Drunk!! What an embarrassment 🤤

Does Larry Kudlow sound a bit drunk to anybody else? I'd say his BAC is .1 at least
It probably does help create that positive mood, as he cheer leads for faith aboard their Titanic economy that is sailing away🙄🍷🍷🍷 https://t.co/t1Rf5EC7dn

Yes, Kudlow was very drunk on that Fox interview. What a disaster those who voted for the incompetent illegal occupant created.
