has been seen many times over the past few years. It is a sign of stress. I had that happen to me for a few years. People thought I was having the shakes from booze then they realized it was ongoing, severe stress. I had to lower my mouth to the glass, hold it with two hands, etc. He is super stressed out.
The ramp thing has also been going on for years. At the beginning people would joke that he had to hold Melanie's hand to walk down airplane steps. This also happened to me when severely stressed. Strangers used to come up to me out of concern since I was as wobbly as he is and I was only in my late 30s.
This is stress related, as far as I am concerned.
