JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon cautioned Mayor Zohran Mamdani about his hard-left vision for the Big Apple, warning the millennial mayor that he can relentlessly preach morality and ideology \u2014 but if the city keeps struggling, he\u2019s failing to do his job.<\/p>\n

\u201cI don\u2019t care what he says. What does he do? I will judge that \u2026 because you can talk about morality and ideology all you want, but if things don\u2019t get better, you didn\u2019t do a good job,\u201d the Wall Street titan told Bloomberg TV Thursday.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd my view, and I\u2019m talking about him now, I have seen mayors who make statements, and they make it worse and worse and worse, you know, and they don\u2019t know, they can\u2019t get into details of why is affordable housing not there anymore? Why does this not work?<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd so, you know, hopefully he\u2019ll learn. I want him to do a good job.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dimon\u2019s biting comments came after he and other top business leaders met with Mamdani, who has pushed a slate of tax hikes targeting the wealthy and businesses since taking office in January.<\/p>\n

The democratic socialist \u2014 who campaigned on a tax-the-rich agenda \u2014 has proposed jacking up corporate taxes, socking millionaires with a new 2% income tax hike, and slapping a luxury levy on second homes worth over $5 million across Gotham.<\/p>\n

The savvy businessman cautioned that only time will tell whether Hizzoner\u2019s ambitious lefty politics drive away the people and companies New York needs to survive and grow.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery city has to compete, and they have to compete at every level \u2014 arts, science, schools. That is what it is, I\u2019m not inventing that,\u201d Dimon told Bloomberg.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe can be an ideologue, but he has to compete too, and we\u2019ll see. Will he learn that he\u2019s got to make the city a place where people want to grow and build and live and have families and work?\u201d he added, pointing to global powerhouses like Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore, and Nashville, Tenn.<\/p>\n
