Jamie Dimon walks political tightrope, may be considering Harris cabinet position: report

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon reportedly said he was considering a position in a potential Harris administration, but sources close to the banking magnate argued that was not the case. 

When it comes to endorsing or supporting Harris, Dimon has not done that, either. The Times reported that in private conversations with bank executives who do support Harris, the JPMorgan CEO has said he has a duty to shareholders not to put his company in the crosshairs of any politician who may want to retaliate.

"I think the chance of that is almost nil and I probably am not going to do it, but I've always reserved the right," Dimon said during the call. "I don't make promises to people. I don't have to. But no, I love what I do. I intend to be doing what I'm doing. I almost guarantee I'll be doing this for a long period of time or at least until the board kicks me out."

Fox News Digital reached out to both the Trump and Harris campaigns to see where the candidates' stand on Dimon today, but a response was not received by publication time.
