New York • Larry Kudlow, the prominent economic commentator who joined the Trump administration this year as the president’s top economic adviser, is recovering after suffering a “very mild” heart attack, the White House said Tuesday.
White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said in a statement that Kudlow is expected to remain at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center as “a standard precaution” after suffering the heart attack on Monday.
“His doctors expect Larry will make a full and speedy recovery,” said Sanders. “We look forward to seeing him back at work soon.”
Kudlow, the director of the National Economic Council, had joined President Donald Trump last week in Canada for the meeting of the Group of Seven world leaders.
