Jamie Dimon criticized Davos attendees for failing to make the world a better place and said gathering to talk remains valuable. He characterized assessments of President Trump's policies as non-binary and dependent on outcomes. He expressed support for a stronger NATO and a stronger Europe, saying some Trump actions aid those goals while others do not. He stated he is generally not a tariff proponent but would use tariffs in some cases and noted tariff rhetoric was initially "too large, too big and too aggressive." He called for a changed approach to immigration and described himself as a critical friend to the administration.
""I've been coming to Davos all these years and listen to chatter and stuff like that," he said. "And you didn't do a particularly good job making the world a better place. I think it's great we get together and talk.""
""I've made it clear I want a stronger NATO, a stronger Europe. Some of the things Trump has done are causing that, some are not. I'm not a tariff guy, though I'd use it in [some] cases. I think they should change their approach to immigration. I've said it.""
""What the hell else do you want me to say?""
