JPMorgan CEO Praises Trump at Davos

Well, that was unexpected.

An international banker CEO at Davos saying something positive about President Trump?

What’s your game, Mr. Dimon?

Bankers have a long history of playing both sides.

JPMorgan Chase chief executive Jamie Dimon said that former President Donald Trump was “kind of right” about NATO and immigration and urged Democrats to “be a little more respectful” of voters who are backing the ex-president’s 2024 campaign.

During a CNBC “Squawk Box” interview conducted in Davos, the site of the World Economic Forum’s annual meeting, Dimon on Wednesday said that Americans who adhere to the Make America Great Again movement were fond of Trump’s policies.

“When people say MAGA, they’re actually looking at people voting for Trump, and they think they’re voting — they’re basically scapegoating them, that you are like him. But I don’t think they’re voting for Trump because of his family values,” Dimon said.

“He’s kind of right about NATO. Kind of right about immigration,” the chief executive continued. “He grew the economy quite well. Tax reform worked. He was right about some of China.”

The reporter’s seem a little speechless.

Someone dared to say something positive about Trump? And while at Davos, no less.

"I don't like how Trump said things, but he wasn't wrong about those critical issues. That's why they're voting for him. People should be more respectful of our fellow citizens," says @JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon. "I think this negative talk about MAGA will hurt Biden's campaign." pic.twitter.com/WKnDjBvefO

Very interesting indeed.

And lest we forget, JPMorgan had ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

JUST IN 🚨 Jeffrey Epstein behavior had been ‘so widely known’ at JPMorgan that execs allegedly joked about Epstein’s interest in young girls while the disgraced financier was a client of the banking giant, lawyers for the US Virgin Islands have claimed in a new court filing.
