I'm curious why this whole section is written in point/counterpoint style -- where rather than describing the general work during his time in this position, this section is used to select statements he has made and then make counterarguments to those statements. Regardless of the veracity of either Kudlow's points or the counterpoints cited, this type of format seems better suited for Politifact or other political sites, and seems to veer off the purpose of a biographical page. Indeed, source 19 is from Politifact. I don't see many examples of similarly formatted sections in most other political or entertainment-type figures on Wikipedia.
Another issue with using this style is that it almost seems dedicated against Kudlow as currently written and therefore biased or editorial. So, if the section focus remains as-is, it seems warranted that we include articles about his correct predictions/forecasts, etc as well (e.g., https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-14/kudlow-s-best-worst-calls-from-no-2007-recession-to-trump-bump). But either way -- I think it's a bit of an odd way to handle a biographical page.
Does anyone else agree and think this would be worthwhile to revise?

I agree 100%. This section is a hatchet job, particularly mean-spirited and one-sided, obviously written by a malcontented Democrat. The section, for the reasons stated by Loozana should be re-written for balance or excised and replaced with statements of his work there. 2601:80:4001:F940:A44F:F42B:49C7:DFA7 ( talk) 01:48, 26 July 2021 (UTC)
I challenge that just because Bear Stearns gave Kudlow the title “chief economist” makes him an economist. He has no economic credentials and has never authored any peer-reviewed studies. Like his friend Steve Moore, some have described him as an economist to give him a patina of legitimacy for his cheerleading for Republican economic policies. He’s a salesman for Laffer tax cuts.

This article is signicantly lacking in a neutral point of view and reads more like a hatchet job, a litany of purported mistakes and unfulfilled predictions. From this article, one could only conclude that Mr. Kudrow never got anything right whatsoever. A little fairness would be appreciated. 2601:648:8700:1F20:8E0A:525B:A36:ABF2 ( talk) 20:51, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
