JP-MORGAN CHASE DENIES TRUMP'S CLAIM THAT CEO JAMIE DIMON HAS ENDORSED HIM. (PHOTO).


 JPMorgan Chase denies Trump's claim that CEO Jamie Dimon has endorsed him


JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has not endorsed Donald Trump, the financial giant said Friday after the former president claimed in a social media post that the executive, America's most prominent banking industry leader, was supporting him.

"Jamie Dimon has not endorsed anyone. He has not endorsed a candidate," Joe Evangelisti, a spokesperson for the New York-based bank told CBS News in a statement.

The denial came after the Republican presidential nominee posted a screenshot on his Truth Social account falsely stating, "New: Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase, has endorsed Trump for president." 


Trump on Truth Social had posted a screenshot falsely claiming, "New: Jamie Dimon, the CEO of JPMorgan Chase, has endorsed Trump for President."

The claim appears to have originated from a verified account on X earlier Friday. It was quickly amplified on social media by other pro-Trump accounts, and then the former president himself, before the bank issued its denial.

When NBC News asked Trump about the post later Friday, Trump said he did not know about it and that it was not posted by him.

"Somebody put it up," Trump said, adding, "I don't know."

The post, published at 1:56 p.m. ET, was still visible on Trump's official account more than two hours later.


In September, Dimon said that he is not backing either Trump or Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.

"I'm not endorsing anyone at this time," Dimon told CNBCTV-18 at the JPMorgan Investor Summit in Mumbai.

Dimon has at times offered qualified praise for Trump, but the two men have also clashed repeatedly over the years.

During the Republican presidential primary season, Dimon had urged corporate leaders to support former South Carolina Gov. Nikki

Haley over Trump.

Trump tore into Dimon for siding with Haley, saying he "had to live with this guy when he came begging to the White House."
