Former Donald Trump on Friday falsely claimed in a social media post that he had been endorsed by longtime JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon.
A representative for Dimon said he hasn't endorsed anyone in the 2024 presidential race, and Trump quickly tried to distance himself from the claim.
Trump first posted about the endorsement on his Truth Social account at around 2 p.m.
Dimon spokesman Joe Evangelisti quickly pushed back on the claim, telling CNBC: “Jamie Dimon has not endorsed anyone.
Trump falsely claimed to have been endorsed by singer Taylor Swift earlier this year, which the superstar said contributed to her decision to publicly endorse Vice President Kamala Harris.
