How to fix Bootstrap dropdown that is covering content to its side?

I have a Bootstrap dropdown button that I would like positioned on the right hand side of the page.

The dropdown is to be of 100% of the page's width, and should cover any content on the page when it is activated. However, I have a large logo positioned to the left of my dropdown button which I want users to be able to click on to take them back to the home page. Unfortunately, part of this logo is covered by the Bootstrap button.

<!doctype html>
<html>

<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
  <title></title>
  <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.2.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" integrity="sha384-GJzZqFGwb1QTTN6wy59ffF1BuGJpLSa9DkKMp0DgiMDm4iYMj70gZWKYbI706tWS" crossorigin="anonymous">
  <script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
</head>

<body>
  <a href="#">
    <div class="logo" style="width: 300px; height: 300px; background-color: black;"></div>
  </a>
  <div class="dropdown custom-drop hide">
    <a class="btn float-right btn-secondary btn-lg dropdown-toggle" href="#" role="button" id="dropdownMenuLink" data-toggle="dropdown" aria-haspopup="true" aria-expanded="false">
    Menu
  </a>
    <div class="dropdown-menu" aria-labelledby="dropdownMenuLink">
      <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Action</a>
      <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Another action</a>
      <a class="dropdown-item" href="#">Something else here</a>
    </div>
  </div>
  <style>
    .dropdown {
      position: absolute;
      z-index: 99;
      width: 100%;
      top: 100px;
    }
    
    .dropdown-toggle {
      margin-right: 50px;
    }
    
    .dropdown-menu {
      text-align: center;
      z-index: 999;
      width: 100%;
    }
    
    .dropdown-item {
      padding: 0.75rem 1.5rem;
      width: 100%;
    }
  </style>

You can limit the area of the dropdown changing its width.
