US President Donald Trump slammed The Wall Street Journal for reporting that he offered Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, the job of Federal Reserve chairman. In a lengthy statement on social media, Trump said the claim was \u201ctotally untrue\u201d and insisted the paper never contacted him for verification.<\/p>\n

He said the report \u201cstates, without any verification, that I offered Jamie Dimon\u2026 the job of Fed Chairman,\u201d adding that \u201cthere was never such an offer.\u201d Trump said he would have \u201cvery quickly told them, \u2018NO,\u2019\u201d and that would have ended the story.<\/p>\n

The president also said the Wall Street Journal suggested he offered Dimon the role of US Treasury Secretary, but Trump dismissed the claim, saying the position was already being handled by \u201cScott Bessent doing a fantastic job, A SUPERSTAR.\u201d He added, \u201cWhy would I give it to Jamie? No such offer was made there, or even thought of, either.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump further accused JPMorgan of \u201cincorrectly and inappropriately DEBANKING me after the January 6th Protest,\u201d and said he plans to sue the bank within the next two weeks. He also reiterated his claim that \u201cThe Election was RIGGED,\u201d saying the protest ultimately proved correct for those involved.<\/p>\n

Trump concluded by urging the paper to improve its \u201cfact checking,\u201d warning that its credibility would continue to \u201cDIVE.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n
