Hayes Tears into Trump's $100K Crypto Dinner
A fiery exchange between Hayes and Trump over a 'pay-to-play' crypto dinner has sparked controversy. The event, which was attended by those willing to pay $100,000 for a 5oz steak dinner with Trump, has been slammed as a 'pay-to-play' affair.
Hayes lashed out at the event, saying, 'Let them eat 5oz steak!' in a reference to Marie Antoinette's infamous phrase. The comment was made during an NBC segment where Hayes discussed the controversy surrounding Trump's involvement with crypto and his dinner events.
The dinner event has been criticized for being a way for wealthy individuals to buy access to Trump, with many seeing it as a form of bribery or corruption. The price tag for the dinner, $100,000, has also raised eyebrows, with some questioning whether such an expensive meal is worth the cost.
