Shut up and go grab your shine box.

Guess Dimon sees a big payday in screwing the citizenry.

Expect big bank fees and 100% interest on credit cards .

Or maybe there is a Jaime/@Chase crypto coin in the works

I always appreciate someone correcting my errors and always appreciate those whose gift for accuracyhan mine. and attention to detail are greater than mine

Just because someone doesn't spell a name correctly. Heck I do that all the time.

I'm also trying to figure out why a guy as intelligent as Dimon is throwing himself behind Trump. And this is not new. Going back even a year he was on Bloomberg Radio saying he was leaning towards supporting Trump. Then, according to Forbes, he privately backed Kamala Harris.

He sounds like a bloody fool when he talks about the bright side of tariffs. No economist believes he is this dumb. So I'm leaning towards your idea that he sees some big opportunity coming up with crypto, or as a result of some kind of further bank deregulation. (In addition to tax cuts, I guess too).

I'm at a loss.

Struggles will only be "temporary" ... so, so what... eat cat food, peasants...

including Trump and Elmo and people like Jamie F'ing Dimon.

And then they all turn into Luigi Mangione.

They are all heavily armed, think they are above the law... and foolishly think Trump is on their side.

They'll be told by their masters "THE LEFT DID THIS TO YOU" and they'll nod and obey.

I wouldn't call Jamie Dimon a MAGA. He's one of the original "American oligarchs," before we even thought in such terms.

The thing about Chump's tariffs is that they're really nothing more than an excise tax that's being used to punish certain groups that are on Chump's "naughty/disloyal" list.

Do the billionaires care about paying taxes? Of course not, none of this affects them. In some cases it will help them make more money. Some American companies that were formerly profitable, will be up for grabs in a couple of years. Well who will be doing the grabbing? The one-per-centers of course. This is how late-stage capitalism works.

They are one and the same now.

And also make no mistake, Trump's policies are most likely designed to make
his billionaire minders happy.

He's a nasty m6therf6cker.

Jamie Dimon is not this stupid, simpleminded imbecile. He's been searching for excuses to back Trump since at least last winter, and it has to be tax cuts and deregulation. But I wish he would just be honest instead of trying to find these supernatural justifications which NO economist or experienced investor could ever credibly believe. He might be able to get away with this on CNN, addressing an audience that doesn't know so much about banking, investment, tariffs, economics. He's just making a goddamned fool of himself in front of his peers.

If China decided to not sell rare earth minerals to the US it would collapse the technology based part of our economy. China controls most of world's rare earth minerals and their refinement, it also controls a number of other raw materials and products we cannot obtain anywhere else. Mexico and Canada are critical trading partners and screwing them is like punching yourself in the face to win a fight. This is the kind of stupidity that brought on the Great Depression. Of course I believe 90% of what the Orange Idiot says is bullshit and just designed to manipulate people, it's just a game to him and he has no concern or understanding of its real world impacts. They voted in an idiot and now we must face the consequences.

and for self-aggrandizement & self-enrichment. In most other areas of knowledge he is a fucking moron.

I cannot understand how anyone who listens to him speak cannot see that he is entirely full of shit. Reminds me very much of a student who didn't even open the book giving an oral book report.

Because now that we've conquered Western democracy, the lone challenge to our global rule is the emergence of China.

malakizmeno kormi kai si.


Translation;
Oh com'on Dimon, fapped up corpse of yours...

IF done thoughtfully and are targeted.

The problem is Trump is ham-fisted and gives no forethought to any of his policy pronouncements.

Also, Trump was elected because his voters were irked by inflation. They probably won't like a new round of inflation no matter how much national security is obtained by tariffs.

... but Mr. Dimon is never at a loss when it comes to spewing self-serving bullshit. He is a textbook sociopath who has zero concern for the adverse effects that predatory capitalism in general, and his bank's dishonest policies in particular, have on those of us who aren't billionaires.

One thing that he and his ilk should never forget: There are far more of us than there are of you, and you can only abuse people for so long before they say, ENOUGH!

I think that line has already been crossed.

On Chinese electronic components from last time, this goofball was in office.

Here’s his plan. He puts tariffs on all these goods coming in from other countries. US consumers have to pay all of the tariffs, despite all of his lies. He uses the tariffs to offset tax cuts for the very, very wealthy. The next president is stuck with his tariffs because removing them destroys our ability to pay the national debt, since we’re not collecting enough taxes. That’s what he did to Joe.

They thrive on boom bust cycles.

Was Biden MAGA when he raised tariffs on China, most of SE Asia, and even Canada?

Oh, but a banker says it and suddenly it's all MAGA this and MAGA that. At least Dimon is actually describing the tariffs accurately, as economic weapons that can be harmful but can serve non-economic purposes, like national security.

Dimon accurately described how tariffs can be effective, if used correctly and targeted.

None of the above applies to Trump's ideas on tariffs.
