Former President Donald Trump recently criticized Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan and JPMorgan Chase head Jamie Dimon for allegedly 'de-banking' conservatives. Trump claimed that many conservatives have faced challenges in conducting business with these banks due to perceived biases against them.
These allegations have been strongly refuted by both banks. Bank of America spokesperson Bill Halldin emphasized that the bank serves a diverse client base of over 70 million, including conservatives, and does not apply any political litmus test to its services. Similarly, JPMorgan spokesperson Patricia Wexler stated unequivocally that the bank has never closed an account for political reasons.
