PROTESTERS booed a reality TV star as he walked into an investors’ dinner for President Donald Trump’s cryptocurrency venture on Thursday.
Anxious crowds waited outside the president’s golf club in Virginia to see who was invited to the black tie event.
Most of the attendees remain anonymous, but Los Angeles Lakers star Lamar Odom was a rare recognizable face seen walking in.
Even though there were complaints from unhappy onlookers, Khloe Kardashian’s sometimes romantic partner shared a video of himself entering the dinner online, declaring, “I’m very excited.”
He boosted his own meme coin and said it “isn’t just a token, it’s taking the stage at a presidential gala tonight!”
Other notable attendees include Nick Pinto, who is a crypto investor and founder of Ogle, and Justin Sun, who has made billions off the meme coins.
It is said that Sun is the main buyer of $TRUMP, having earned a substantial $312 million from cryptocurrency transactions and $43 million in overall fees, according to The Washington Post.
When questioned about who was invited to the event, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt maintained that the dinner was being held during Trump’s “private time.”
“It is not a White House dinner, it’s not taking place here at the White House,” she told reporters.
