17. im not conflating todays performance to 'a drink or a dose'

jfc, what was that about? No, this op and another OP posted displeasure with AM, and it got a lot of replies in the positive. I was just remarking about the sudden uptick in Ari Melber posts and you happened to add the whole "Of course it is possible he had a drink or a dose that was more potent when overtired."

So, what the hell is that about? So he drinks? Ooooook. He had a drink before aire time? he's a drunk? Please, explain fully what you mean.


"Nobody in this thread said anything hateful about Ari Melber. He definitely was not his usual self. Probably very tired, going from early morning to late night most of the week. Commenting on his performance and concern for his well being is just a conversation.


"Of course it is possible he had a drink or a dose that was more potent when overtired."


Ooooookay?
