Coca-Cola has presented a special-edition bottle of Coke to the returning president. While it’s been an on-going tradition of theirs present incoming presidents with a commemorative bottle of Coca-Cola, this instance still indicates appeasement for two reasons:

1. It’s Diet Coke 🤔
2. Coca-Cola condemned the Jan. 6 attempted insurrection 4 years ago

Apparently Coca-Cola sees fit to put that little bit of unsettled history into a bottle and set it to sea.
