In this brief YouTube excerpt, Bridger Pennington asks a guest about the prospect of JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon running for president. The guest notes that Wall Street backing would cause the political right to view Dimon as an elite adversary, while the left would label him a far‑right big businessman. The guest doubts Dimon has a realistic path to victory and does not expect him to run. The conversation then shifts to asking the guest who they consider the front‑runner for the 2024 presidential election.

What do you think about Jamie Dimon running for president?
When you have some of the big Wall Street guys, you know, backing him, it seems like almost everybody on the right looks at Jamie Dimon as an enemy, looks at him as somebody working for the other side or the elites or whoever is pulling the strings. Everybody on the left looks at him as a far-right big businessman. Personally, I don't really see a path to victory for him, so I wouldn't expect him to actually take the plunge, but we'll see.
Do you have a front-runner, your favorite for the 2024? Favorite?
I'll put it this way. I think that it's very possible this election year is the first year in maybe US history where it's not 2 main candidates battling it out.
