JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon's wife door knocks for Kamala Harris

[ad_1]

While JPMorgan boss Jamie Dimon has refused to endorse a candidate in Tuesday’s presidential election — his wife has firmly thrown her support behind Vice President Kamala Harris.

Judy Dimon knocked on doors in the key swing state of Michigan over the weekend as she urged voters to elect Harris over former President Donald Trump, according to Bloomberg News.

“The stakes are high in this election for our country, our core principles, our security and our economy,” Judy Dimon, a longtime donor to Democratic candidates and an education advocate, told the outlet.

“The freedoms, rights and opportunities that have benefited many of us should be there for more — not fewer — of our children and grandchildren.”

Judy Dimon has given $250,000 to Harris and the Democratic National Committee, according to Axios.

JPMorgan Chase declined to comment.

The couple has been married since 1983 and they have three grown daughters.

Judy Dimon’s very public expression of support for Harris stands in contrast to that of her husband, who has told associates in private that he backs the Democrat and would consider a role in her administration, according to the New York Times.

Publicly, however, Jamie Dimon has hedged his bet by praising elements of Trump’s platform.

He has said that the Republican challenger was “kind of right about NATO” and immigration and that he “grew the economy quite well” during his presidency.

Dimon has also said that Trump’s “tax reform worked” while seconding some of his criticism of China.

Jamie Dimon, a longtime Democrat, recently admonished his party and its supporters to be “more respectful” of Trump and his MAGA movement.

Both candidates have tossed out Jamie Dimon’s name as their possible pick for Treasury Secretary.

Last month, Dimon said that the chances of him quitting JPMorgan to work in the next administration are “almost nil.”

Dimon’s future has been a subject of intense speculation on Wall Street.

The 68-year-old banking executive said in September that his main focus was on ensuring a smooth succession at his company.

Dimon previously signaled his timeline for stepping down is no longer five years and could be as soon as two-and-a-half years.

JPMorgan has identified Jennifer Piepszak and Troy Rohrbaugh who jointly lead commercial and investment banking, Marianne Lake, who runs the consumer business, and Mary Erdoes, the head of asset and wealth management, as potential successors.
