Mike Johnson says Trump is transparent, Meme Coin Dinner rejects concerns

The spokesman for the House of Representatives Mike Johnson has thrown concerns about President Donald Trump's private meme dinner on Sunday and argues that the president does “everything outdoors”.

While he was talking to Jake Tapper of CNN, Johnson said that he had no knowledge of private dinner, which some legislators obtained about conflicts of interest and whether the participants wanted to influence Trump on cryptocurrency policy.

When Johnson was asked about the lack of disclosure in relation to the list of participants in the Meme Coin dinner, the spokesman said that the president “had nothing to hide”.

“President Trump is the most transparent president in the most transparent administration, probably in history,” he said.

“President Trump does everything outdoors. He doesn't try to hide something,” added Johnson. “There are no Shell companies or fake LLCs or fake family businesses. He puts it out there so that everyone can evaluate themselves.”

Trump's crypto company, including his own introduction Meme coin In January and dinner for the 220 top investors of the coin, a group of Senate Democrats, which have pushed for larger ethics standards, made concerns, including the recently adopted genius law.

Johnson played a leading role in the shephering of Trump's “One Big, Beautiful Bill” through the house last Thursday, a big victory for the GOP.

However, the legislation is exposed to an uncertain future in the Senate, in which several Republicans have expressed concerns about the effects on the federal deficit and the effects of medicaid cuts, higher state and local tax deductions as well as the effects of tax loans for clean energy.
