    "This is what happens when I drink beer."

    Do liberals actually believe that? I'm certain she's Hillary 2.0 and everything is planned down to the semicolon; If any.

              They can creep up on you. I remember having pool night with some buddies and we were pounding pitchers of coors light. And I was more of a cocktail guy. I stepped for a cigarette and it hit me. I was way over my limit.

        Idk, I stopped drinking a while ago and now my tolerance is so small that a pint of Guinness has me feeling a little more loose and lethargic

    I hate when people act like certain kinds of alcohol give them a license to be shitty. "Oh I'm sorry it's Tequila that makes me do that." No it's the alcohol in the fucking Tequila, don't act like if it was Bourbon you'd be sophisticated. You picked a fight and then pissed yourself while I tried to buy you an Uber because I was at the limit of what I can handle.

      This also unecessarily pisses me off too much. Every time I hear someone say that whiskey makes them particularly worse, I want to scream screm-a

      Drink less volume because percentage is higher. If that's not possible, that's not Whiskey's fault, you're just not able to control yourself and should adjust your habits (of course I'm not speaking about alcoholism, that's different. This is people who drink socially but turn to assholes)

    Sure, this strategy of trying to humanise a monstrous, uncharismatic ghoul via focus group testing failed horribly with Hillary Clinton, but I'm sure it'll work out great this time and certainly doesn't come across as condescending and incredibly fake and out of touch.

    Holy shit. If this is true and she's a Miller High Life drinker, she should win all 50 states. There is no better summer day than a bucket of High Life ponies on ice. To me, it is one of life's great luxuries. I was already a Harris fan, but I guess now I'm in the hive or whatever.

    While I usually fancy myself a PBR hipster, MHL is a perfect summer vibe. She gets it.

        its supposed to be over 80 degrees out this week in chicago, more like 90 if you go 1 or 2 states

        plus cold beer around the campfire is also great

        Is it so dry and acidic that it tastes like absolute garbage unless you drink it with food?

          You know how most cans of beer have that last sip that's really bad-tasting? Miller High Life is if the whole beer tasted like that.

          It tastes like carbonated cheerios with some light metallic notes. It's not awful compared to something like Budweisser that comes pre-skunked for some reason, but like any pilsner it can never rise above the upper limit of "well, there are in fact worse pilsners."

      PBR and MHL are both disgusting, so it makes sense hipster Harris supporters drink both. I bet that person thinks knowing the names of two overly bitter IPAs makes them a sommelier.

          Oh sorry I didn't mean PBR and MHL. I meant they think they're some kind of connoisseur for drinking shitty craft beers, which they will name drop in front of Budlight and Milwaukee's Best drinkers as some kind of flex.

    She really is like your drunk catty aunt, isn't she? Her being so uncharismatic and bad at maintaining a politician's aloof persona would almost be charming if she wasn't a power hungry psycho happy to sanction evil if it means she can grab a little more for herself.

      I always saw her as the catty anunt, through the prior primary debates that’s the vibe I got. Now drinking MHL and talkin’ shit on a late night show, that catty aunt vibe is locked in. 🙄

    Did she squirt an entire bottle of rubbing alcohol into her beer to show the voters how punk she is or had she simply had one beer with every public appearance and statement that day? If she really cannot handle one beer without it completely changing her behavior she should ask Nancy Pelosi to coach her. There's a lady who would have replaced that beer with an equal amount of pure grain alcohol and then started acting normal.
