Hassett says Trump's vibes are bringing prices down: "Americans because of President Trump's leadership have recognized that when they buy an American product, they not only get a better product most of the time, but they're also making their communities stronger. There's a lot of patriotism in the data"

There is no direct, verifiable evidence from available sources that Kevin Hassett made the specific claim attributing lower prices to President Trump's leadership and linking it to patriotism in consumer behavior.

The reporting

What the Evidence Shows

The claim attributes a statement to Kevin Hassett asserting that President Trump's leadership is causing prices to come down because Americans are choosing American products out of patriotism, which in turn strengthens communities. Breaking down the claim: 1) Hassett says Trump's leadership is bringing prices down; 2) Americans recognize that buying American products often means better quality; 3) This behavior strengthens communities; 4) There is patriotism reflected in data supporting this.

The search results and structured sources provide background on Kevin Hassett's role as an economic adviser and his defense of some Trump administration policies such as tariffs and trade negotiations, but none contain a direct quote or verified statement matching the claim. The sources discuss Hassett's economic views and policy positions but do not confirm he linked price reductions specifically to Trump's 'vibes' or patriotic consumer behavior.

Without a primary source or credible secondary source directly quoting Hassett making this statement, the claim cannot be confirmed. It is possible the quote is paraphrased or taken out of context, but no evidence was found to support or refute it definitively.

Therefore, the claim remains unverifiable based on the available information.
