There’s a video out there somewhere of Leahy, staggering drunk, trying to give a speech in congress. Yes, he really has shown up to work sloshed.
Over the years I’ve heard plenty about different Critters and Senators. And public intoxication was the least of it.
Note to Congress: Y’all can stamp your expensively shod li’l feet and call it a smear, but the truth is out there. Prepare for incoming.
Probably what Trump was referring to. It is curious how Leahys Staff would let him appear in public like that. Brit Hume talked about sitting next to a Rat Senator at some black tie deal (I cant remember who, not Tip ONeal but that era) and the guy stood up and gave a speech. Brit said he was shocked the guy could stand up much less talk.
Just audio in this one:
