The button, housed in a very official-looking wooden case, was installed in the first few days of Trump's presidency in order for the president to quell his cravings for Diet Coke, which he reportedly drank 12 cans of per day, according to The New York Times. Biden ditched former President Donald Trump's "Diet Coke button" which, quite literally, made a Diet Coke appear on a silver platter when pushed. But before he put pen to paper, President Biden had to rid the Oval Office of one Trumpian item that is still hard to comprehend as real. On his first day in office, President Joe Biden signed more than a dozen executive actions including an improved response to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, a rollback on Trump-era immigration restrictions, and improvements to the U.S.'s involvement in climate-related initiatives. Other social media users claimed that the disappearance of the button was a desire from Biden to remove all personal items related to his predecessor Trump.Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post, Getty Images In 2017, a report by the New York Times indicated that Trump consumed excessive cola while he was in his office at the White House.įollowers of social networking sites were divided about the disappearance of the "red button", as a team said that it was due to Biden not consuming soft drinks, a hypothesis inconsistent with a previous report by the Washington Post in which it said that Biden during his run for the presidency, was consuming good quantities of cola.
Social media users circulated photos of Biden in the Oval Office, which was no longer equipped with the red button. Press reports indicated that after Trump took office in 2017, he approved of a small wooden box to be placed in his office, which was intended to order the caffeinated beverage. According to CBS, the former president was a fan of Diet Coke.
