There's that possible reason...

However, there's also another explanation that may co-exist for that.

People who are control freaks and people with some narcissistic tendencies (which I think it's safe to say he's a little of column A and a little of column B) often avoid alcohol as well, out of fear that they may "lose control" or a fear that being in an inebriated state could make them look bad and impact how people view them.
I wasn’t aware of that at all. That’s actually quite interesting.

I’m sure Trump is well aware many people don’t like him. That’s why he gets so angry when others criticize him. But, I don’t live inside his head so I really don’t know for sure.

Right, but there's a difference between "rivals" (whose opinions they don't value) not liking a person, and their own ardent supporters losing respect for them from seeing them inebriated.

I had a former boss who like that...would refuse to "let his hair down" (even at office parties) out of fear that someone may not view him as "in complete control of all things, at all times"

There was no reason to question Biden's health. Please stay on topic.
I disagree! It is relevant to point out the hypocrisy in questioning the health and cognitive abilities of Trump.

Wow. Just. Wow.

I’m speechless.

No reason? Really? REALLY?

He didn’t run again for a reason. His health was the reason.

That said, I wish him the VERY best.

God bless him.

I can see why people can question the health of BOTH.
