'Even the big moves that we're seeing right now in Congress are not going to be enough,' Kevin Hassett told CNN.
"If everybody just stays home for six months, then it's going to be like the Great Depression," Hassett said. He also predicted that the employment numbers for April would be"the worst jobs number you ever saw."
"As soon as Congress passes this, we get this out in three weeks. And then, six weeks later, if the president still has a national emergency, we'll deliver another $3,000," he explained.
