President Donald Trump took a break from insulting his MAGA followers Wednesday to shift the country's focus to his beverage company of choice.

Trump started his day posting two Truth Social screeds calling his own base "stupid" and "weaklings" for believing what he termed "the Epstein hoax." By the end of the day, however, his tone had substantially softened.

Although the president has been known to drink several Diet Cokes in a day, Trump gleefully made the cane sugar announcement to his 10 million followers on Truth Social.

"I have been speaking to Coca-Cola about using REAL Cane Sugar in Coke in the United States, and they have agreed to do so," Trump wrote . "I’d like to thank all of those in authority at Coca-Cola. This will be a very good move by them — You’ll see. It’s just better!"

MAGA seemed to forget all about Trump's earlier name-calling and celebrated his Coke announcement with fanfare.

"WOW! I never thought this could be done. THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP!" wrote MAGA influencer Bo Loudon.

The account of MAGA Voice wrote, "President Trump has PERSONALLY convinced Coca-Cola to use REAL Cane Sugar. IT’S ACTUALLY HAPPENING. FINALLY.

MAGA influencer @HansMahncke wrote, "Only Trump could walk into the room and rewrite the Coca-Cola formula."

Political commentator Ian Jaeger called the announcement "HUGE!" while self-described "January 6th political prisoner" Anthony Constantino wrote, "Which cola do you support? I’m with @CocaCola. MAHA!"

RedWavePress posted, "Make America Healthy Again!" while the account of @ZaidJilani took "health" out of the equation altogether, posting, "Coca Cola is not healthy for you no matter what they put in it. Drink sparkling water."
