Trump weighing Bitcoin hater Jamie Dimon for US Treasury
The former president could reveal more details at the Bitcoin Conference in Nashville from July 25 through 27.
Former United States President and current Republican ticket nominee Donald Trump said recently that, if elected, he would consider JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon for his cabinet as secretary of the Treasury. He also intends to leave Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell in place.
Trump’s comments stem from an interview with Bloomberg reportedly conducted in late June and published on July 16. It’s unclear if the former president’s thinking remains the same in the wake of the July 13 assassination attempt.
This appears to be the first time Dimon has been publicly linked to a potential Trump administration. The two have had a somewhat cantankerous relationship in the past, with Trump recently calling Dimon a “highly overrated globalist” in a November 2023 post on Truth Social. For his part, Dimon previously urged people to support Trump opponent Nikki Haley for the Republican nomination.
