I veeery much doubt his teetotaler claim. The guy lies about everything.

Totally agree that we can't take Trump at his word, but the man has been on camera for decades and there is no footage of him drunk. I don't believe that Trump has the self-control to hide a drinking habit.

Also I believe Trump's #1 motivator is narcissism. He may not have cared that his brother died, but he did see himself in his brother. He saw the devastating results of lifelong alcohol abuse and committed himself to avoiding it.

Yeah i can see that. I forgot teetotaler meant non-alcohol, not just full on sober. trump definitely does prescription drugs

I can to an extent, his big brother did pass away due to alcohol abuse. I can imagine that would have an effect on him

Maybe some of the reason for his very late night / early morning ranting on social media when no one is around? I can see the alcohol adversion being possible too but since he lies like a sidewalk it's hard to believe anything he says. It'd be sort of amusing if that was the one truth he always told, since it's brought up often as him not drinking. And no pictures of him like the secretary of ... Whatever the department is called now, defense... War etc kegsbreath. Mean I think there's at least one picture with a glass of wine but you gotta raise the proper glass etc so nothing solid.
