In an age where the media has come under unprecedented levels of scrutiny for slanted reporting and bias, CNN has chosen to stick to the issues. Particularly, that of a video where President Trump politely asks for a Coca-Cola.
In a video posted to CNN.com, correspondent Jeanne Moos pushed the unconfirmed reports that the President allegedly drinks 12 cans of Coke a day. She included clips of Comedy Central and other late-night television making light of the rumors.
Thanks...I think ;)
I understand your view. I respect it.
Some people won’t watch NFL anymore. Some people won’t shop at Target, Dick’s Sporting Goods, or JC Penney. Some won’t eat at The Red Hen.
For my part, I just can’t drink Coke. I can’t willingly give my money to promote corporate advocacy of normalization of homosexuality.
She better watch out, it’s always the Starfleet people in the red shirts that don’t come back from the planetary missions.

Coke is also my drink.... although I am trying to give it up.
Currently drinking the 7.5 cans.
Fond memories from the 70s of my dad asking us kids if we wanted a pop.... because that meant a coke.
LOL!
Someone in this photo appears to have watched a lot of old Star Trek episodes in their youth.
He would only have two, but the larger soft drinks are outlawed in new york
OK, so Trump drinks a half case of Coke every day ...
I’m happy to know that. I feel SOOOOooo very well informed.
I wonder why Big Media never bothered to tell men how many cigarettes 0bama smoked every day?
I feel that I have been deprived critical, need to know information!
That's what one vaguely recalls, anyway.
Welcome to the conundrums of dealing with the unsaved, sinning world.
I still say the sin is theirs, not yours or mine, if we purchase their beverage. We are not embracing their entire company. They have a choice before God about what to do with the earnings they get. If there were no grace in a world full of sinners, nobody could move away from sin.
Sending prayers after the situation sounds like the right tack to me. Praying that this very company would be moved by the grace of God to embrace more of God and accordingly less of sin. I would think that these commercials DO turn people off independently of boycott activity, that focus groups would prove it, and if saner management that listens to the focus groups prevails, these commercials will be quietly sent by the boards as aberrations. But that involves grace. The other tack is to push Coke into the “gay” camp more deeply in a defensive posture. I don’t want that.
Oh no...Trump Supporters who are Pepsi fans dropping Trump for AntiTrump Dems.../s
Thanks for the info on Ms Moos.
You’re welcome.
