Jimmy Damon has finally closed the door on a presidential tour. Or maybe not.
It seems that the CEO of Jpmorgan, who is widely considered the bank of the bank because of his stellar record, which runs the largest financial institution in the country, leaves the door open on Wednesday morning, to the point that he might take a stab in the highest office on the ground at some point, and perhaps soon.
Speaking at a high -level technical conference in San Francisco sponsored by Ai PowerHouse Databrics, Damon was asked, wearing jeans and black jacket, by the CEO of the company, Ali Godsi, “Will you run for the presidency?”
Damon turned into a crowd of about 1000 technologies and asked: “How many of you will vote for me?”
In the middle of applause, the important hands were offered, he mocked with a smile: “Get all the wealthy white people to vote for me.”
Then he gave the non -median standard:

Damon spent a lot of conference talking about the strength of artificial intelligence, the need for a strong defense, and the economic threat from China, but the “thinking” part of his answer to his future political aspirations that were looking for Wall Street, who may look forward to running in three years when Donald Trump's second term ended.
So I asked one of the JPMorgan processors in Dimon for an explanation.
He explained to me the position of Damon that has not changed.
Damon loves to be a president, but he focuses on many issues, including some cultural issues that disagree, so that he could not win the nomination of either party.
“He believes he will do a great job,” he said. “He does not think he can win.”
Notice the word “thought”.
Damon has been volatile over the years both over the timing of his retirement, and what he would do after doing the most difficult job in banking, such as taking the most difficult political job in the world as president. He earned him and “Hamlet” and the title of Wall Street.
As the money mentioned, Damon is supposed to step as a CEO at some point in the next three years or so, but people inside JPM say it may remain longer, at least as president. He also continues to talk about being president as he really wants the job, as it is clear from his observations in Databrics Confab.
In 2018, he said he would even make a better president Donald Trump, noting that “I think I can overcome Trump” in a race.
“I am cruel as it is, I am more intelligent than it is. I will be fine. He could have praised me everything he wanted, and he will not work with me. I will fight again.”
Damon later stated, saying that they were proven, “I will not make a good politician.”
Over the years, Damon was a supporter and critic of Trump's policies (he recently talked about the need to apply borders, but he does not like the president's approach to definitions). This did not prevent our current president from floating from time to time as minister of the potential Treasury Ministry due to the clear strength of his star in Wall Street and the ingenuity in the market.
Meanwhile, the Dimon-Fondact movement was coherent after a co-article in Fortune on June 3, where Juru Jeffrey Sunfield at Yale Jeffrey Sunfield and Stephen Henrix, a senior colleague at the Executive Command Institute, wrote that Damon's commercial and moderate policy will make him ideal for the job.
“Damon has constantly adopted a political philosophy of social awareness with financial wisdom.” They wrote.
“The Executive Director will constantly enhance the policies that adopt a smaller and more efficient government, reasonable regulations and rapid permits, then the axis to reduce special tax exemptions (including reserved benefits), double tax credit, investing in public education, defending voting rights, and defending cultural and economic interest in disgrace.”
