Trump caught hiding bottle of Coke despite telling supporters to boycott it

Donald Trump told people to boycott Coca-Cola after they criticised Georgia's new voting laws. Clearly as principled as ever

It's been a while since Trump has been in the headlines proper, and we're certainly glad of that. However, his gaffs were often some of the best and, between crying and genuinely worrying for the fate of the modern world, laughing at the big orange toddler was one of the few things people could enjoy while he was in power. Thankfully, while he had to concede the election, he hasn't given up being one of the most fickle, foolish and feckless public figures out there. So much so, in fact, that apparently he can't even resist the taste of a sugary beverage he told an entire country to boycott long enough for the cameraman to leave. https://twitter.com/StephenM/status/1379170568562434050?s=20 As you can see just behind the phone on his desk, Trump has what appears to be an open bottle of Coke that either he or someone else in the room has attempted to hide for the sake of potential embarrassment. That went well. Perhaps it's the soft drinks that account for the radioactive bronze complexion - who knows? He even has a tiny bronze statue of himself - look to the left. For context, last week, Coca-Cola - along with other organisations such as Delta Airlines and even Major League Baseball - came out in opposition against Georgia's new elections laws. Essentially, these new voting restrictions include: stricter polling times, fewer drop boxes and shorter windows for postal ballots; just one form of identification (i.e. driver's licence or social security number) and some awkward rules around handing out food and water. Subsequently, Trump decided to label three of the most quintessentially American organisations you could think of "woke companies that are interfering with Free and Fair Elections". He also scrutinises identification, once again, alluding to the fact that signature checking (a hotbed for controversy throughout the last election) is no longer part of the process - one that he didn't seem to understand at the time either. https://twitter.com/Bencjacobs/status/1378161934734876675?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1378161934734876675%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_c10&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fcms.joe.co.uk%2Fwp-admin%2Fpost-new.php
