HIS ONE TRUE LOVE

Coca-Cola CEO Makes Trump’s Diet Coke Dreams Come True

The Coca-Cola company had a surprise gift for the president-elect ahead of his inauguration.

Coca-Cola CEO James Quincey has gifted President-elect Donald Trump a one-of-a-kind commemorative bottle of Diet Coke to celebrate his upcoming inauguration. “Tonight, President Trump received the first ever Presidential Commemorative Inaugural Diet Coke bottle from the Chairman and CEO of Coca-Cola Company, James Quincey,” Trump’s Deputy Director of Communications Margo Martin announced on X Tuesday, alongside a photo of Trump and Quincey posing with the bottle. The glass bottle features a unique label showcasing an image of the White House along with the slogan, “The Inauguration of the President of the United States Donald J. Trump.” Trump’s public declarations of love for Diet Coke precedes his first presidency. In 2012, Trump made an iconic post on what was then Twitter, writing that he had never “seen a thin person drinking Diet Coke.” In another tweet, Trump said he would “still keep drinking that garbage” despite the company not being “happy” with him. During his first term, Trump also had a big red button on his desk at the Oval Office to order Diet Coke from an aide.
