    • Dimon supports Trump’s tariffs, calling them a strategic “economic weapon” to protect national security and rebalance global trade.
    • He dismisses tariff critics, arguing minor inflationary pressures are worth the trade-off for protecting American interests and reducing reliance on foreign adversaries like China.
    • Tariffs are seen as a negotiating tool, compelling foreign partners to address unfair trade imbalances and revisit agreements disadvantaging U.S. workers and businesses.
    • Dimon’s shift is notable, as he previously criticized Trump’s tariffs but now acknowledges their strategic benefits, such as pressuring NATO allies and addressing immigration.
    • Trump’s latest tariff proposals target Canada, Mexico, and China, aiming to renegotiate trade deals and secure more favorable terms for U.S. industries.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon has thrown his weight behind President Donald Trump’s aggressive tariff policies, calling them a valuable “economic weapon” that serves the dual purpose of protecting national security and rebalancing global trade.

Speaking at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, Dimon dismissed critics of the tariffs, urging them to “get over it” if the measures result in minor inflationary pressures. His endorsement marks a significant departure from his earlier skepticism during Trump’s first term, signaling a broader recognition of the strategic value of tariffs in today’s geopolitical landscape.

Tariffs are taxes imposed on imported goods. They are designed to make foreign products more expensive, thereby encouraging consumers and businesses to buy domestically produced alternatives. Critics often argue that tariffs lead to higher prices for consumers and disrupt global trade.

Dimon’s recent comments highlight a more nuanced perspective. He argues that tariffs, when used strategically, can serve as a powerful tool to protect American interests and force foreign trade partners to address unfair imbalances. (Related: Trump announces 25% tariffs on Mexico and Canada, effective February 1.)

Dimon further argues that protecting critical industries and reducing reliance on foreign adversaries, particularly China, is worth the trade-off of minor economic disruptions. By leveraging tariffs as a negotiating tool, theoretically, the United States can compel other nations to revisit trade agreements that have historically disadvantaged American workers and businesses.

The JPMorgan CEO’s change of heart is particularly noteworthy given his previous criticisms of Trump’s policies.

During the president’s first term, Dimon warned that tariffs could harm the economy and even described himself as “smarter than” Trump.

The key is to use tariffs as part of a broader strategy

Dimon’s recent comments suggest a growing appreciation for the strategic use of tariffs, especially in light of their role in decoupling the U.S. economy from China. Dimon now acknowledges that Trump’s approach has yielded tangible benefits, such as how he was able to pressure North Atlantic Treaty Organization allies to ramp up defense spending and how strategic tariff threats helped and are currently helping address illegal immigration.

Trump’s latest tariff proposals include a 25 percent levy on Canadian and Mexican products and a 10 percent tariff on Chinese imports.

These measures are part of a broader strategy to renegotiate trade agreements and ensure a level playing field for American industries. Dimon’s endorsement underscores the potential of tariffs to bring foreign partners back to the negotiating table, where the U.S. can secure more favorable terms.

Trump should put the tariffs on immediately, expert says. Watch this video.
