Gallup regularly polls Americans on their consumption of alcohol. Currently, they are seeing an alarming drop in alcohol use among Republicans. In fact, many of us apparently are becoming teetotalers:
The Gallup data are here. While I don’t see that chart, the numbers appear accurate. The number of Republicans who say they drink–at all–has dropped from 65% in 2023 to 57% in 2024 to 46% in 2025.
Is this the pernicious effect of MAHA? Or are Republicans seeing less need to drink, now that the Biden disaster is behind us? That seems like a possibility, but note that the Trump administration has not driven Democrats to drink. Not yet, anyway.
Keep trying, Donald!
