The 78-year-old Republican nominee responded to reports suggesting he was considering the two financial CEOs for his cabinet.
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump has quashed reports suggesting he may consider appointing JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon or BlackRock CEO Larry Fink as secretary of the Treasury if reelected.
In a July 23 post on his Truth Social platform, Trump said neither Dimon nor Fink was part of his plans for a potential cabinet if he were victorious in November. He seemed to contradict an exclusive report released on July 16 by Bloomberg Businessweek, whose team sat down with Trump in June.
“I don’t know who said it, or where it came from [...] but I never discussed, or thought of, Jamie Dimon or Larry Fink for Secretary of the Treasury,” said Trump.
