Disgraced CNN anchor Chris Cuomo revealed that he drinks “too much” but insisted he’s not “an alcoholic” during a frank discussion about mental health on an episode of his podcast Thursday.
Cuomo, who starts a new gig at NewsNation on Oct. 3 after he was fired by CNN last year, admitted that he often turns to alcohol as a coping mechanism.
“Too often, I think, we avoid dealing with things. So here’s a little bit of my story. I take my body and — my diet can suck. I drink too much,” Cuomo said. “I’m thinking about that, mostly in terms of why I drink too much. I’m probably what people in the sobriety community would call a ‘normie’ but a hard drinker.”

No, as long as he’s drinking...he’s an alcoholic.

Fredo also said he talks too much but he’s smart, not dumb, like everyone says.

“Functioning alcoholic”
Well but he lost his job, so...maybe not that exactly...

A functioning alcoholic is one who has plenty of stock
It’s why one can buy by the case

Do you know who doesn’t drink too much? President Trump. But he makes some other people drink too much.
