Kudlow’s wife Judy spoke to Washington Post reporter Robert Costa and told him Kudlow was conscious and spoke on the phone with one of his friends.

He’s doing fine. The doctors here are fabulous,” Kudlow’s wife said.

Kudlow worked closely with the president on trade and economic negotiations at the G7 Summit in Canada before the president traveled to Singapore.

“I myself was particularly gratified to hear my President talk about free trade,” Kudlow said during the press conference with the president after the summit.
