President Trump reinstalls the famous Diet Coke button on the Oval Office desk, along with other personalized changes marking his return to the White House.

Joe Biden’s blue rug was swapped for Trump’s neutral-coloured one as part of a switch from the outgoing president’s belongings to the incoming one’s, and Trump’s infamous red Diet Coke button reportedly was back in place by as early as mid-afternoon on inauguration day.

After Joe Biden took office in 2021, reports emerged that he had removed the Diet Coke button from the presidential desk. However, with Trump back in the Oval Office, the button has returned to its rightful place, a symbol of his long-standing devotion to the soda.

As Donald Trump returned to the Oval Office for his second, non-consecutive term, so did the highly popular Diet Coke button, which the US President uses to order his favourite beverage.

The Coca-Cola Co. cozied up to the world’s most famous Diet Coke drinker — President-elect Donald Trump — late Tuesday by presenting him with an inaugural edition of his favorite beverage.

The button gained fame after it was revealed by Trump himself in 2017 that he uses it to summon sodas during his term. The famous, red-colored button is hidden inside a wooden box, and made to look like a part of the wooden table itself.
