    I think you are reaching X.

But in fairness, the weight of knowing that he soon in all likelihood will be the next SoH probably sunk in. Alcohol just primed the pump on the emotions.

    Agree. I could care less if he was drunk or not; I can't much blame him for wanting a snort or two after the intensity of the last few months. I'm much more concerned with his policies.
