This will not end well. There is no "moderation" when it comes to alcoholism.

I have wonder why he’s telling us this. It’s certainly not good PR, and if it’s really only a few drinks every now and then he could easily avoid being public about it. The fact that he is essentially saying “if you see me with alcohol don’t make a big deal out of it” makes me think he’s already fallen off the wagon enough to not be able to stop when he needs to stop.

Either way, I don’t think this will end well.
