Episode 166: What's the Plan?

Today on the Sunday news shows, the hosts questioned if the Trump administration has any comprehensive plans to address the public health crisis and the financial catastrophe of COVID-19. Multiple representatives of the White House went on the shows, including Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin,  White House Council of Economic Advisers Chairman Kevin Hassett, and Economics Advisor Larry Kudlow. Not all the hosts appropriately interrogated the talking points of the White House. George Stephanopoulos, in particular, missed the mark and gave too much leeway to Kudlow.
