SiriusXM Progress host Michelangelo Signorile is questioning Donald Trump’s “cognitive decline” after he appears to have forgotten a potential nominee for Treasury Secretary.
Trump spoke with Bloomberg earlier this month and agreed that JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon could be a potential candidate for the position.
The reporter at Bloomberg asked the question twice whether Dimon would be a candidate for Treasury Secretary, and Trump said that “he is somebody that I would consider, sure.”
“He [Dimon] was at the [GOP] meeting.”
In a post on Truth Social this week, Trump denied he commented.
"I don’t know who said it, or where it came from, perhaps the Radical Left, but I never discussed, or thought of, Jamie Dimon or Larry Fink for Secretary of the Treasury,” Trump said. Fink is the CEO of the BlackRock investment firm.

I fully endorse them dropping Trump, and promoting Vance up to face off against Harris.
I think the country really needs to see a Democrat get 90%+ of the vote.
As they fucking should.
And not because the same was done to Biden, though the silly geese on the blue side seem to only care about retribution here.
There’s a basic, important principle here that the president absolutely needs to have a working brain. Biden and Trumps’ brains are doing what old brains do, and there’s no shame in it, but they are walking examples as to why we need an age limit for the presidency.
How can anyone can listen to him and not think, “This is just a torrent of nonsense”?
Having interacted with a number of Trump supporters over the years, they legitimately talk nonsense like this daily. This is nothing new. If anything, it makes them like him more because he’s like them, and they want to be him.
What’s actually rare is when he insults someone and they are surprised or don’t like that he said that. But no, most supporters latch onto the phrase and repeat it themselves
