Jimmy Fallon and Stephen Colbert are thirsty for that secret Trump tape

The real winners are the soda companies.

That secret recording between Trump and former lawyer Michael Cohen has been played relentlessly over the past 24 hours.

You can count on late night hosts Stephen Colbert and Jimmy Fallon to give a fresh spin on the tape, opening with the story in both their monologues.

As many gleefully pointed out on Twitter, Trump's "Get me a Coke, please," comment proved to be the best thing about the tape.

"That is great product placement," Colbert quipped, before launching into a parody of the Nixon White House tapes, featuring an ad for TaB diet cola. Oh and of course, Colbert pointed out the tape's poor recording.

"The only thing Michael Cohen is worse at than lawyering, is sound recording," he added.

Over on The Tonight Show, Fallon leaked a new Trump-Cohen tape, featuring all of the beverages that the president would ever want.

"Snapple? Do you have Snapple? Made from the best stuff on Earth!" says the parodied version of Trump on the tape.

The real winner of this whole debacle would be the soda companies, it'd seem.
