#TrumpTariffs Trump Holds Dinner for Cryptocurrency Investors Amid Corruption Criticism
----------------------------
U.S. President Donald Trump held a closed dinner last Thursday evening at his golf club near Washington, gathering top investors in his cryptocurrency, which drew criticism from Democratic lawmakers and activists who deemed it "outrageous corruption."
The dinner was attended by 220 of the largest holders of the "Trump $" $TRUMP currency, with the event featuring a special session for 25 of them who are major investors, according to the event's website, amid supposed overlap of his presidential authority with his business interests, according to critics.
Trump launched the currency $TRUMP three days before his inauguration, which raised his wealth by billions and raised ethical questions. The White House responded that Trump attended in his "personal" capacity.
Outside, protesters held signs reading "Stop Cryptocurrency Corruption," while Senator Elizabeth Warren labeled the event a "corruption party," accusing Trump of using his position to profit.
