Don't know if anyone caught this the other day on CNBC, but Jim Cramer gets a call on live TV, leaves the set, and comes back and says the White House is listening to his (Cramer's) ideas lol. You can't make this stuff up. Check it out here.

Jim Cramer the new White House economic advisor.

All the big shot names, Dalio, Gundlach, Buffett... have made stupid calls; no one gets it right all the time. Despite Cramer's personality making him seem more TVish than authoratative, I think he has a decent fundamental outlook and is probably as good of an advisor as anyone else.

Cramer's delivery makes him seem like a clown but the guy is incredibly wealthy and has managed a lot of money over the years. He acts like an idiot sometimes but he isn't an idiot. He and Kudlow worked together, it isn't surprised that they talk.

WH is grabbing for ideas.
What the WH needs is leadership and team.

I believe it, the WH is now made up of only kiss-a.. yes men in support of any BS that fits their agenda that they want to communicate to the gullible.

We can definitely count on the top .1% to help us through this. God bless the super-wealthy.

I try to watch him but the stupid sound effects stunts make me want to slap him. He's running around banging things and ringing bells, I actually yelled "Please stop doing that!" at the tv.

Someone needs to tell him you don't need to do that if you're on TV and not a 1930's radio show!

It might be more correct to say that he's as good an adviser as anyone else that Trump has.
