JAIME DIMON: We have to control the borders. We need more merit-based immigration.

We are screwing up tons of other things, including immigration.  But life isn't either or, so when your kids say we'll do this or that . . .  You know, you're dealt the hand you're dealt, and you got to deal with it.  So we should be very clear about helping the lower-income population.  Every country has to control the borders, and we have to control the borders.  So they're all important.

00:22  Would you take the deal that the Republicans put on the table, which is we want this border and immigration policy as we've laid out, and then we'll fund the rest.  Would you take that than neither?

00:32  I have not read that deal in total, but I probably would take it.  We have to control the borders.  We need more merit-based immigration.  We need more seasoned immigration.  [seasoned?  You mean of a certain age?]  We need DACA to have a place here.  We need a path to citizenship.  If you do not control the borders, you are going to destroy our country.  And so I think the people who think that somehow it's okay, well now that they're sending the migrants into New York and stuff like that . . . so to all of my super liberal friends, now they realize what a problem it is.  Did it have to be that?  So we want to have a big heart for the world, but we have to control [the border and immigration].
