I'll be suing JPMorgan Chase
The promise
Trump announced that he would sue JPMorgan Chase over the closure of his banking relationships after the January 6 Capitol attack. He made the threat while denying a report that he had offered Jamie Dimon a senior economic role. Trump characterized the bank's conduct as improper political debanking. The supporting argument was that financial institutions should not exclude lawful customers because of political views. The competing concern was that an allegation of political motivation does not establish why a bank ended a relationship or whether it broke the law. The post made a specific litigation commitment and gave a two-week horizon.
