Read the email CEO Jamie Dimon sent to JPMorgan employees after the assassination attempt on Trump

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon sent an internal memo to staff condemning the assassination attempt on Trump and encouraging “constructive dialogue.

The attempted assassination of former President Trump drew quick responses from lawmakers and business leaders, including JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon.

Dimon joined the list of CEOs who spoke out against the shooting with a companywide email to employees sent Sunday, which B-17 confirmed.

Dimon wrote his message on behalf of the “entire leadership team” at the company and said his thoughts were with former President Trump and his family, along with the families of the victims of the attack.

He also took a moment to send a message about unity and taking a strong stance “against any acts of hate, intimidation or violence” that undermine democracy or cause harm to others.

“It is only through constructive dialogue that we can tackle our nation’s toughest challenges,” Dimon wrote in the memo.

Dimon, who has donated to Democratic candidates in the past, praised Trump’s policy record earlier this year in an interview. He credited the former president for growing the economy and being “kind of right about NATO, kind of right on immigration” as well as China. He also said that he wishes “the Democrats would think a little more carefully when they talk about MAGA.”

Dimon’s Sunday message about constructive dialogue and unity against political violence was echoed by several other business and tech leaders, as well as big names on Wall Street.

Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon said in an earnings call Monday that “we cannot afford division and distrust to get the better of us.” Sundar Pichai wrote on X that political violence is “intolerable” and everyone should come together against it. BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said Monday on CNBC that the shooting was a tragedy and Americans need to discuss divisions and bring “our community together.”

Citibank CEO Jane Fraser also sent a letter to employees Monday saying she hoped the events would cause everyone to rethink their words and “tone down the rhetoric so we can have a more civil discourse,” according to a Yahoo Finance report.
