(Bloomberg) -- President Donald Trumps top economic adviser, Larry Kudlow, said Wednesday that he doesnt regard systemic racism as a problem in the U.S.
I dont believe nowadays we have systemic racism, Kudlow told reporters at the White House.
The White House is under pressure to address civil unrest over the death of an unarmed black man, George Floyd, in Minneapolis police custody last month. Protesters in cities nationwide have accused police of systematic brutality against people of color and have demanded wide-ranging reforms.
Kudlow, who is white, said the White House is looking at an executive order on the matter. Were studying possible reforms, he said.

President Donald Trump's top economic adviser, Larry Kudlow, has revealed that his wife has had an easy time applying through the small business loan program to help keep her art business afloat amid the coronavirus crisis, despite others reporting big problems.
My wife Judy
she is a self-employed artist-painter, very distinguished one, some renowned, she could use some help for her operation, Kudlow said during an interview with POLITICO last week.
Kudlow, whose personal assets are valued at a maximum net worth of $2 million according to a 2018 Bloomberg report, touted how simple it was for his wife to take out a loan for her business under the Small Business Administration loan program.
'She went to a local, community bank up by our place in Connecticut and apparently it's just a one-page form, that's all it is. It couldn't be easier,' Kudlow said.
