The irony is both Walz and Trump don't drink alcohol (unsure why Trump doesn't but I found it frustrating since I don't drink and want nothing on common with the guy lol). Harris and Vance probably do drink though, and Harris wins there as she is probably a giggly drunk. Vance is probably just an annoying drunk. Not mean, but perhaps more whiny about rural folks he hates and maybe a like tech bro vibe.
Of course, that's of you that this bar literally; it obviously means "who would you rather hang out with" and to me, that means "who would you rather play Super Smash Bros Melee with after school" and the Harris/Walz camp got that beat. Plus I'm only letting Walz bring the mountain dew, last time Vance did and we all passed out-- you know how expensive it is getting upholstery cleaned? Big oof.
I've heard that one of his brothers was an alcoholic and that turned him off of it.
His dad destroyed both him and his brother, and his brother turned to alcohol to soothe the pain. DJT watched this and placed the ENTIRE blame on booze, which may or may not be fair. I don't know if his brother could have turned it around. Not drinking can be a healthy decision (it certainly has been for me, it was a hard choice and one that has made my life better for every single one of the 6 years I haven't been drinking), but I don't think DJT has confronted his demons properly because his generation doesn't do that. He may have been worse with alcohol in the mix, but the fact is I don't think alcohol is what destroyed his brother. His brother was destroyed by the same thing that destroyed him: trauma.
I wish so much I could find a comment about this on the old site. It said "Donald Trump does not drink alcohol" and every word was a link to a real photo of him with an alcoholic drink in hand. I tried searching but Google has turned to shit and the images are all Photoshop shit.
Wouldn't be surprised given he's a habitual liar, but on the other hand it is a "weird" trait. And he most assuredly has done coke so it's not like he's a saint, lol.
