By his own testimony under oath yesterday, Brett Kavanaugh said his high school friend and drinking buddy Mark Judge "developed a very serious drinking problem." Is it reasonable to at least think that drinking buddies likely party together specifically because they overlap in the amount of alcohol consumed, even if they react differently?
This doesn't inherently mean that Kavanaugh himself developed a serious drinking problem, just that he probably drank as much as someone who did, to significantly-more excess than he testified to, merely acknowledging that he liked beer. A lot. And if so, it raises substantial questions about how one acts when drinking to that overabundant level, whether or not one becomes addicted to it.
