Richard Branson says Obama used the Oval Office red button for this request

The mysterious wooden box on the president’s desk in the Oval Office is said to be a presidential call box so the commander in chief can communicate with the Secret Service with the touch of a button. Literally.

But according to Richard Branson, President Barack Obama used the button to order a little pick-me-up while he was in office.

In Branson’s new autobiography, “Finding my Virginity”, he reveals that Obama shared some secrets with him during a lunch at the White House.

Apparently, Obama used the red button to order tea for him and his guests!

The entrepreneur quoted the president saying, "They used to be there for emergencies, but now I use them for ordering tea for my guests."

President Donald Trump is said to use the red button to order coke on demand.
