“In an emailed statement, a JPMorgan Chase spokesperson told NPR the lawsuit "has no merit" and said it intends to defend itself.”

Good.

I'm not a fan of either, let them fight to the death

I very much agree, but also (though this is the lowest of low bars) I do appreciate Jamie Dimon not going full sycophant like we've seen from other C suites across the country

I guarantee it has nothing to do with doing the right right thing. It’s all money and he has to please his investors more than he does Donald Trump.

That may actually be the true, underlying, motivation for the suit, you know..

Is there such a thing as a lawsuit where both parties can lose?

Trial by combat

Is this going to be one of those extortion lawsuits like with that previous merger?

Except this time it's against a hard target that's likely to fight back.

Can I sue banks that don't give me loans?
