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

Weirdest part to me is that I really can't believe that he's drinking Diet Coke and not regular Coke. I know there's concerns about diet sodas, but that shows a concern about his health and what he puts in his body that I never imagined Trump was capable of.
Naw, I think it's because he specifically enjoys diet coke more. If I want a soda, it's diet coke or nothing. I'm in good health, but diet coke tastes great while regular coke almost makes me feel ill from the thick syrup.
Same. The only thing that calms the beast that lives in my soul is the sweet embrace of aspartame. I cant even really drink mixed drinks with non diet soda. Sugar Free Redbull and Vodka just hits so good.
My behaviors shouldn't be emulated 😅
I'm now 9 years sober, by back in my day I would do redbull + tequila as my hair of the dog drink of choice. Cause if I survived one, I felt great.
Is it because US coke has corn syrup instead of cane sugar?
It's a factor. Coke, Diet Coke, and Coke Zero all taste different regardless so individual preferences are guaranteed.
Yes.
I can't stand American Coke but if I ever see the bottles of Mexican Coke then I'll get that.
Not that I like the man but I believe he's also been against alcohol life long? Definitely has some concern with what he consumes.
Not trying to defend the taste. I hate the taste of diet coke myself, but I don't know what it is about that diet soda specifically. I have met many people in real life and through the internet that just fucking LOVE diet coke. Idk why, but they drink 3-5 cans a day. I am working with one now that had to stop drinking for health reasons and she was talking about how she missed the taste a couple weeks ago.
Diet Coke lovers are a dedicated breed.
I'm not sure how much chemical tweaking they did on aspartame, but I suspect it ended up being overfitted to their test group because I can't stand the taste of it. It just tastes a bit off to me, like there's some undesirable chemical in there.
Stevia was disappointing for me because the ones granulated like white sugar also have that flavour. Maybe it's from traces of whatever solvent was used to extract it from the plant.
I'd rather have water than any diet soda.
Coke has been doing this every year.
He probably wanted to be special and the ability to say "First DIET coke inaugural bottle"
From the comments here, it seems like his plan of making people think Coke is doing it to endorse him is working.
