The doctors said it was a “very mild” heart attack. “Larry is currently in good condition at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and his doctors expect he will make a full and speedy recovery,” White House press secretary Sarah Sanders said. The doctors said this was a very mild heart attack, she said. “The president and his administration sent their thoughts and prayers to Larry and his family,” Sanders said. Larry’s wife, Judy, said he was doing “fine”. Trump too tweeted on Larry’s health on Tuesday:

Our Great Larry Kudlow, who has been working so hard on trade and the economy, has just suffered a heart attack. He is now in Walter Reed Medical Center.
