Apparently Jamie Dimon does not feel that he is suited for the job. Or maybe he just doesn’t want to work for Trump.
In any event, the fact that Donald Trump is looking to Wall Street for people to serve in his economic team confirms the fears of those on the left who supported Bernie Sanders’ Presidential bid. Trump is expected to dump the Dodd-Frank Bill which increased financial regulations after the sub prime mortgage debacle.
