The Trump administration's economic agenda is the right agenda. Corporate taxes have been driving capital and brains and companies overseas for a decade. It has caused huge damage in investment and jobs and productivity. It was a mistake. We have to fix it. Counterintuitively, that usually helps middle-class wages, and lower-class wages, and job formation.

My guess is the big Chinese banks will be in 100 countries by then. They will have very sophisticated operations, and they may very well have bought banks around the world in countries that allow it. I mean, I don't think the American government would allow them to buy JPMorgan. But they will be able to buy a sizable big bank in the U.S. at some point. Whether they do or not, or if it's allowed or not, I don't know.

I am not embarrassed to be a banker. I am not embarrassed to be in business.

It's great that people get together and collaborate, talk about the facts and the analysis, all in the interest of having a great financial system.

I was a normal human being, but I did like that. I read a lot. I also liked math and science.

I know the President [Barack Obama]. I like him and respect him. That does not mean I agree with all of our government's policies, whether they come from Democrats or Republicans.

We have a lot of people who are Republicans, a lot of people who are Democrats, and it's not just because of business reasons.
