Trump’s top memecoin holders’ dinner is an “impeachable offense,” says Sen. Ossoff

Democratic U.S. senator for Georgia Jon Ossoff said President Donald Trump’s invitation to top meme coin holders constitutes an “impeachable offense.” Answering a question from a town hall meeting attendee on Friday, Ossoff said: “He is granting audiences to people who purchase the memecoin that directly enriches him.” Ossoff was referring to the gala dinner invite announced on Wednesday for the 220 top holders of the Trump memecoin. Ossoff said that the move constitutes “selling access for what are effectively payments” made “directly” to Trump. Therefore, it undeniably “rises to the level of an impeachable offense, and the reality is that that’s just one of many,” he added. Only three U.S. Presidents have been impeached by Congress. President Trump was impeached twice during his first term—the only President to have faced two impeachments. The impeachment process requires the House of Representatives to launch a formal impeachment inquiry. If the House Judiciary Committee approves, articles of impeachment go to the full House, where a simple majority vote can impeach the president. However, removal from office requires a two-thirds guilty vote in a Senate trial. Trump was acquitted both times in his Senate trials following his impeachments. No U.S. president has ever been removed from office. Therefore, Ossoff said that he is working on securing votes for impeachment, but with Republicans controlling the Senate, it’s a difficult task. How Trump stands to gain from the invite to memecoin holders According to the official website for Trump’s memecoins, the top 220 holders of $TRUMP will be invited to attend a gala dinner with the president on May 22. The dinner, advertised as the “most exclusive invitation in the world,” will be held at Trump’s Private, Members-Only Club in Washington, D.C.. The top 25 $TRUMP holders will also gain access to an “Exclusive Reception”…
