Carrot and Vetinari had that “polis/policeman/politician” conversation in Men at Arms, and later on in Feet of Clay Vimes remarks that Carrot is one of the very few people who genuinely like Vetinari as a person. Plus, Carrot in his role as King Destined has some insight into metanarrative, so I don’t doubt that Carrot, in that moment, became perhaps the only person to plainly see Vetinari for what he is, beyond the icy evil mastermind act that Vetinari puts on. Man Of The City. Good gods. And he’s never told anyone this. So I like to believe that, as soon as Vetinari had said that, Carrot very purposefully strode back across the throne room and gave Vetinari a rib-crushing hug. Like, the kind that lifts you off your feet a little bit

Does Dimon actually BELIEVE in this crap? More likely, he is covering his bases in case Trump is elected. Donnie Boy was seriously pissed off at him when he came out in favor of Nikki Haley.
How many industry and financial CEO’s are going to follow his lead? The only constituency that truly benefitted from the Trump Presidency was the super-rich. And Trump has shown repeatedly that he has a vindictive nature, and holds a grudge. Carrot and stick.
When it comes to public policy, large banks are inherently untrustworthy. Unregulated capitalism and fascism are natural allies.
We are now about halfway along the path connecting a free democracy to a fascist dictatorship.
