Trump crypto dinner guest describes ‘worst food’ ever and ‘bullshit’ speech

A TikTok prankster who attended Donald Trump’s dinner for the US president’s top memecoin holders said the three-course meal served was some of the “worst food” he’s eaten and that Trump’s speech at the event was “pretty much like bullshit.”

“It was the worst food I’ve ever had at a Trump golf course,” Nicholas Pinto told WIRED on May 23, while other attendees the outlet interviewed said that the meal was “OK, but not top-class.”

On the menu at the May 22 event, which all paid millions to attend, was a “Trump organic field green salad” followed by a filet mignon and pan-seared halibut with mashed potatoes and vegetable medley while a lava cake was dished up for dessert.

“The only good thing was bread and butter,” Pinto said, adding he left the venue still hungry.

Pinto had told Fortune during the event that the filet mignon was “trash,” calling it “Walmart steak.”

“Everyone at my table was saying the food was some of the worst food that they ever had,” said Pinto, who purchased around $300,000 worth of the Official Trump (TRUMP) token to earn his spot at the event.

“I was hoping for either Big Macs or pizza,” Pinto said, referring to Trump’s liking for McDonald’s. 

Pinto also criticized Trump’s speech, telling Fortune that it was “pretty much like bullshit.”

According to videos shared on X, Trump, while reading from a script, claimed that some of the smartest minds from all around the world were in the room and suggested that crypto may be something special.

Others complained about how Trump left immediately after his short speech instead of sticking around to hand the top token investors new watches, Pinto noted.

Meanwhile, 35 Democrats have called for the Justice Department to investigate Trump’s crypto dinner, as they suspect he may be accepting foreign investments in violation of federal bribery statutes and the foreign emoluments clause of the Constitution.

Under the emoluments clause, the US president is barred from accepting any gift from a foreign state without the approval of Congress.

Trump invited those who were among the top 220 largest holders of the TRUMP memecoin to his event at the Trump National Golf Club in Virginia — many of whom came from all around the world, according to Trump himself.
