White House Press Pool Reports @WHPressPool - Pool Report #6: Hassett quotes
Hassett took several questions on a variety of topics while speaking to reporters briefly at the sticks.
On housing: Hassett mentioned President Trump’s proposal of banning institutional investors from buying up family homes. Adds that administration has reduced mortgage costs by $4,000 per family this year.
“The housing sector is something that the president’s focused with a laser beam on.”
On tariffs: Hassett said the 15% tariff increase is “still being discussed.”
“It depends on the status of existing negotiations and existing deals.”
Trump’s midterm messaging: Hassett referred to Trump’s State of the Union speech and proposals he laid out.
“Congress isn’t going to run next fall resting on morals, but rather with great ideas.”
