Trump has been a lifelong teetotaler? Do you know why?

I know a lit of business deals are usually made over drinks, so that had to make some social aspects of his life more uncomfortable.

I read that it was a discipline he imposed on himself, maybe at or after military school, and he stressed it to his children, the three eldest (by Ivana) who have turned out to lead very productive lives. The fourth one, Tiffany (by Marla) is just finishing college, I think, and Barron (by Melania) is only about 8 or 9. Great-looking family.

He had an older brother with severe alcohol problems who died young. That probably figured in. I know the example of my wild Irish uncles turned me off of drinking for life.
