Donald Trump’s private dinner with top holders of his $Trump memecoin drew sharp backlash, as around 100 protesters greeted guests at his Washington-area golf club on May 22, shouting “Shame!” and holding anti-crypto signs. Attendees included Chinese crypto mogul Justin Sun and ex-NBA star Lamar Odom. Inside, tables were branded “Fight Fight Fight,” and guests received themed gift bags. Critics, including top Democrats, blasted the event as potential crypto corruption and a way to sell access to the presidency. Foreign-based memecoin holders were among the invitees, raising further ethical concerns.
