The Magnificent Seven
J.P. Morgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon “made some interesting comments on today’s political affairs, even though he’s said publicly he won’t run for president and is committed to head the bank for the next five years,” CNBC reports.
Said Dimon: “I think I could beat Trump… because I’m as tough as he is, I’m smarter than he is… I can’t beat the liberal side of the Democratic party.”
Dimon later backtracked, telling Reuters: “I should not have said it. I’m not running for President.”
