Trump Fundraiser Lands Nathan's Hot Dogs In Hot Water

BROOKLYN, NEW YORK — Nathan's Hot Dogs landed in boiling water this week after news broke that executive chairman Howard Lorber would host a fundraising event for President Donald Trump in the Hamptons.

Hundreds of people have since pledged not to buy Nathan's Hot Dogs after Bloomberg reported Tuesday the president would appear at Lorber's Southhampton home Friday for a fundraising event for his 2020 campaign.

"Welp," the musician Questlove tweeted. "Goodbye Nathan's."

The hashtag #BoycottNathans has since united hundreds of people who are unwilling to support a frankfurter that might benefit the Commander-In-Chief.

A Nathan's Hot Dogs spokesperson responded to news of the proposed boycott in an official statement that noted the company does not support "any political agenda."

“We acknowledge and respect that people’s political views differ," the spokesperson said in a response statement. "Our focus is solely on serving the best products to our customers across the country.”

Trump is slated to arrive at Lorber's fundraiser — where he expects to raise upward of $3 million — at 1:30 p.m. Friday, according to Toronto Star reporter Daniel Dale.

Lorber is a friend of the president who served as an economic advisor during Trump's 2016 campaign and was appointed chairman of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum's board of trustees.

News did not rile all fans of the Coney Island company, some of whom responded with their own hashtags.
