I really hope this won't become some sort of tradition now

Continuing a proud tradition.

Fanta originated in Nazi Germany because they couldn’t source the ingredients for the Coke recipe.

Aged like a fine diet coke

Hide-the-pain Trump?

A propaganda boy, and in more than one sense.

The next four years are going to be very interesting to watch. If the first try was disastrous, the second is poised to be even worst.

America, you were once a country that could muster respect.

Were they, though...?

Far, far, away.

I'm a "no, Pepsi isn't ok" guy, but I'm never drinking Coke again. Because from now on it tastes like kissing Trump's ass.

[–] PugJesus 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah, gave up Pepsi over their continued involvement in Russia, now I'm giving up Coke over their involvement with a Russian stooge.

I'm at RC right now.

Do yourself a favor and drink water instead. Your teeth and testicles will thank you

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

I second this.

[–] [email protected] 177 points 2 days ago (6 children)

Everyone is lining up to kiss his puckered arsehole.

[–] [email protected] 47 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I doubt it’s puckered at that age unfortunately

Roses are red, violets are blue, I'm gonna piss on his grave.

I'll do rhyming later.

Wow he looks bad. Did he lose a bunch of weight? He looks frail. And a lot older.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 2 days ago

Celebratory cocaine

[–] TheBraveSirRobbin 14 points 2 days ago (4 children)

I hope he's ok for 2-3ish years. Vance having a real chance at 10 years as POTUS is terrifying

[–] [email protected] 22 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

I was about to say "Vance is such a weak personality he could never be elected" and then i remembered how useless the Dems are so who fucking knows.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

He's guaranteed because the Republican-led states will make sure he gets their EC votes regardless of how the populace actually votes. There will be nothing to stop them any more.

Lol morons paying this dude a million and Coke comes in with a 5 dollar commemorative.

[–] NikkiDimes 1 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

I'm sure they paid for this massive photo op in more than a single bottle of coke.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

Yeah. 5 dollars more (the commemorative, duh) 😂

[–] [email protected] 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Lmao right? This cost them nothing. A graphic designer probably whipped this up in a few minutes, print, stick on a bottle, done.

[–] calcopiritus 1 points 13 hours ago

It cost them at least one lifelong customer.

[–] HeyJoe 83 points 2 days ago (3 children)

It was a lot of people's jobs for months now creating some special bottle and box for this PR moment... none of this should exist. It reminds me of stories about the Middle Ages, where people would come before the king and shower them with gifts to make sure they are appeased.

[–] shalafi 21 points 2 days ago

A graphic designer could whip that up after lunch.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

Apparently Coke does this shit for every presidential elecrion and governors too but this is the only time it was diet and hand delivered by the ceo.

He'll need a NASCAR type jacket, featuring all of his sponsors. I just can't keep up anymore.

[–] [email protected] 49 points 2 days ago (7 children)

We need that for all the politicians. Only a tiny handful would have blank jackets.

Diet Coke tastes like shit

[–] harrybo93 64 points 2 days ago (3 children)

Never seen him looking so fucking old and wrinkled

[–] HowManyNimons 70 points 2 days ago (5 children)

To be fair, he is older than ever before.

Actually I think some of it is the weight he's lost recently.

But I am looking forward to him being dead, yes.

Marketing rule #1, know your market. Note that you don't need to actually need to have taken marketing classes to know this. So congratulations on doing what anyone with more than two brain cells could figure out, ya rich CEO jackass.

[–] itsathursday 48 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Oh look an ad

[–] [email protected] 32 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Apparently someone loves to lick boots and give some a handie under the table.
