Trump Meme Coin Dinner Fuels Call for Impeachment

Georgia U.S. Senator Jon Ossoff has voiced his backing for President Donald Trump’s impeachment, pointing to a controversial event involving a private dinner with top holders of the TRUMP meme coin.

According to NBC News, during a town hall meeting in Georgia on April 25, Senator Ossoff condemned President Trump, accusing him of “selling access” to the presidency.

“I mean, I saw just 48 hours ago, he is granting audiences to people who buy his meme coin,” Ossoff stated. “When the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively payments directly to him. There is no question that that rises to the level of an impeachable offense,” he added. 

Senator Ossoff’s comments came after an attendee at the town hall asked why Democrats had not pursued impeachment. The attendee expressed concern that President Trump’s actions were pushing the country toward authoritarian rule.

The senator “strongly” agreed with the attendee’s concerns but explained to the audience that pursuing articles of impeachment is not a feasible option at this time.

“The only way to achieve what you want to achieve is to have a majority United States House of Representatives,” Senator Ossoff said. “And believe me, I’m working on it every single day, every single day.”

Details Emerge on Trump Meme Coin Exclusive Dinner Event

The call for impeachment followed an April 23 announcement on the Official Trump Meme Coin website, which revealed plans for an exclusive dinner at the president’s Washington, D.C. golf club. The event, reserved for the top 220 token holders, also included a public leaderboard and registration details.

Furthermore, the specific guest list is unclear. However, those wishing to attend the dinner must pass a background check and comply with Know Your Customer (KYC) regulations. Guests are reportedly not permitted to attend the event.

On April 25, the team behind the Trump meme coin refuted rumors circulating on social media, clarifying that TRUMP holders do not need to invest $300,000 to attend the upcoming dinner.

“People have been incorrectly quoting #220 on the block explorer as the cutoff. That’s wrong because it includes things like locked tokens, exchanges, market makers, and those who are not participating. Instead, you should only be going off the leaderboard,” the team wrote.

In an X post, the team described the opportunity to dine with President Trump as a competition and assured the community that further details would be released soon.
