Donald Trump has joked he would be a «mess» if he indulged in alcohol.
The president spoke about his drinking habits at a news conference as he discussed Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh’s comments about drinking beer in high school and college.
The president said he is not a drinker, adding: «I can honestly say I’ve never had a beer in my life,» and: «It’s one of my only good traits.
«Can you imagine if I had, what a mess I’d be? I’d be the world’s worst.»
Mr Trump’s older brother, Fred Jr, died after struggling with alcoholism.
In the past, Mr Trump has described his brother as a «great guy», but said he «had a problem with alcohol», and that he learned from his brother.
