Trump Organization Hosts $TRUMP Meme Coin Dinner Contest with President
The Trump Organization is hosting a new dinner contest for top holders of the $TRUMP meme coin, offering an 'exclusive' evening with the president. The event is a sequel to a May 2025 gala that experts called a 'textbook pay-to-play scandal'. The top 29 purchasers of the crypto keepsake will be invited to a VIP reception with President Donald Trump, and the top four will receive an 18-karat Trump-branded gold watch.
The contest began on Wednesday and runs through November 12, with the event scheduled for November 22. The Trump Organization has been accused of profiting off the president's presidency, with financial disclosures showing him earning over $1 billion from his crypto ventures. The White House has said Trump is not involved in his investment accounts, but his portfolio is managed by third-party financial institutions.
The Trump Organization has hosted similar events before, with the top 220 holders of the $TRUMP meme coin invited to a black-tie dinner at Trump's golf club in May 2025. Those in attendance had contributed millions to the president's crypto token, and the 25 biggest investors received access to a VIP reception with Trump.
