    However, European leaders completely agree with the behavior.

    “It’s standard protocol to breathalyze everyone who enters Wembley Stadium to make sure they’re drunk enough, including players,” says Mayor of London Sadiq Khan. “This incident makes sense to me. Prior to our election, the recorded rates of intoxication throughout the stadium were much higher. America’s terrifying future is in the hands of its citizens, and to cope, in one of those hands should also be a cold one.”

          Rehab won’t help the creeping sense of dread consuming us all. But glad she’s trying.

          I’d lord it over the others in rehab. Oh, your lowest moment resulted in your family hating you? Mine was aired nationally and will be viewable for the rest of my life! In your face!

          But seriously, I hope she finds what she needs in rehab.

      Lol, do they actually have fireworks in every match?

      That’s incredibly cringe. Well the whole thing about singing the national anthem is cringe but the fireworks really makes it 10x worse.

    worst thing to happen to this country since President Clinton,” said Republican Governor, Greg Abbott, as he turned on a generator to power an air conditioner and dressed himself in a bullet-proof vest

    Yup, sure sounds like him.

      Honestly it’s the least believable line in the article. No way Abbott misses a chance to bash Obama.

    I don’t even believe she was drunk, she just sucks. Her studio albums weigh heavily on autotune from my brief listen

    Also why even hire a country “musician” whose vocal range is one octave and their songs are the same three chords, like what are you even expecting here

    It’s a baseball stadium. Seems pretty unreasonable to require that she be the only one sober.

        Did you intentionally pick the worst metaphor possible, given the context? Because that was the worst metaphor possible, given the context.
