JPMorgan’s CEO Jamie Dimon Quietly Backs Kamala Harris, Shuns Donald Trump

Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan, has privately supported Kamala Harris for presidency, despite not publicly endorsing any president candidate. In confidential conversations, sources familiar with Dimon’s opinions said that he supports Harris and has contemplated serving in her administration, possibly in the Treasury.

His decision to remain silent on his political stance is a move to avoid potential backlash or retaliation, particularly if Donald Trump won the presidency.

JPMorgan’s CEO Backs Kamala Harris for US Election Presidency

According to recent reports, JPMorgan’s CEO has expressed his preferred candidate in the November presidential election is Kamala Harris. Although Dimon remains silent on the matter he supports Harris’s policies and even considers taking a position in her administration if she was elected in office. 

While he personally supports Kamala Harris, JPMorgan’s CEO has not publicly shared his political views because of possible consequences. The CEO has been careful due to the behavior of Trump who has historically attacked people that publicly oppose him.

Dimon is echoed by other corporate chiefs who have similar feelings that they may suffer Trump’s repercussions. However, these sentiments have not hindered Trump’s election odds lead from giving a lift to crypto-markets. Given Trump’s 62.1% edge, buying sentiments in the United States have resulted to $2.2B digital asset inflows.

Jamie Dimon’s Tense Relationship with Donald Trump

JPMorgan’s CEO relationship with Donald Trump has been strained in recent years. Dimon had once harshly criticized Trump’s post-2020 election behavior, calling it “treason.” However, in early 2024, Dimon commented at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, praising Trump’s tax policies. This statement fueled speculation that Dimon might be shifting toward Trump.

Furthermore, the Republican candidate reported a blatant lie on Truth Social that the CEO of JPMorgan Chase, had supported him. A spokesperson for Dimon however dismissed the assertion stating that the CEO has not endorsed any presidential candidate.

Later, Dimon explained that he meant discussing Trump’s electoral base rather than supporting the former president.

Since then, Dimon has kept his political affiliations unclear and has generally stayed away from politics. He did not publicly endorse any candidate unlike some of his other strong stances on topics like economic polarization. Some privy with Dimon have said that his reluctance to speak is a measure meant to protect the company from negative reactions.

More so, as the head of JPMorgan Chase, Dimon holds political influence, regularly engaging with global leaders and policymakers. However, his associates have indicated that Dimon’s concern over potential retaliation from Trump is not unfounded. Donald Trump has increasingly targeted critics in both the political and corporate world.

In addition, apart from Dimon’s neutral stance, billionaire Mark Cuban has criticized Donald Trump’s campaign, suggesting that it is more about Elon Musk than Trump himself. Cuban argued that Musk’s increasing involvement, including financial incentives, indicates that Musk, not Trump, is steering the campaign.
