JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has voiced his support for Donald Trump’s economic policies, stating that the former President recognised many of the critical issues currently facing the United States. Dimon’s remarks come as the country prepares for a potential rematch between Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming presidential election.
According to Dimon, Trump’s focus on economic concerns, immigration challenges, and relations with China demonstrated foresight. Dimon emphasised that many Americans, particularly Trump’s supporters, are drawn to these policies as they reflect the pressing problems the nation is now confronting.
Dimon argues that Trump was correct in addressing both the immigration crisis and the economic challenges the US now faces. He highlighted how the immigration situation has worsened, with reports suggesting that over six million migrants have crossed the border during President Biden’s administration. Trump had previously warned that unchecked immigration could lead to broader social and economic difficulties.
In contrast, Dimon criticises the way Democrats have responded to Trump’s supporters, particularly those associated with the “Make America Great Again” (MAGA) movement. He cautions that dismissing these voters risks damaging Kamala Harris’s election campaign, urging Democrats to engage more respectfully with them.

Dimon also reflected on Trump’s broader policy record, praising his administration’s handling of trade, tax reforms, and NATO relations. He noted that Trump’s economic strategies helped stimulate growth and addressed longstanding concerns about China’s influence on global trade.
Dimon’s comments suggest that many of the issues Trump prioritised during his presidency remain relevant today. In his view, this explains why many Americans continue to support Trump’s vision for the country’s future.

The immigration crisis is not limited to the US, Dimon notes, pointing to similar challenges in the UK, where tensions over immigration have led to recent unrest. In both countries, governments are grappling with how to balance the needs of migrants with the concerns of their citizens.
