i didn't think it was all that bad. i'm not sure what the media said, but as far as the incident goes, he explained it, owed up to it, and acknowledged that the consequences were warranted.

a little 'bro-ish', but whaddaya expect

I was thinking about him driving while doing it, putting other people at risk yet again, and him blaming the media like a Trumper.
