A U.S. senator calls for the impeachment of Trump and mentions dinner with buyers of the memecoin TRUMP
The U.S. president plans to host a private dinner for the 220 top holders of his memecoin TRUMP.
U.S. senator, Jon Ossoff, expressed his support for the impeachment of U.S. President Donald Trump during a public meeting on April 25, citing the president's plan to organize a private dinner for the top holders of the Official Trump memecoin.
"I mean, just 48 hours ago I saw that he is granting audiences to people who buy his memecoin," Ossoff, a Democrat, said according to a report from NBC News.
"When the sitting president of the United States is selling access for what are effectively direct payments to him. There is no doubt that this reaches the level of a crime."
Senator Ossoff said that he "strongly supports" impeachment proceedings during a public meeting in the state of Georgia, where he is running for reelection to the U.S. House of Representatives.
The senator added that impeachment is unlikely to occur unless the Democratic Party gains control of the House during the U.S. midterm elections in 2026. Trump's own Republican Party currently holds the majority in the House and Senate.
