  • EVs usually have two modes, one that lets you mostly drive with one pedal, and one that drives like a gas car. Sounds like your driver was using the wrong mode.

    Personally I like the gas-car mode because I don’t want to misjudge the effectiveness of the regen braking and hit something because of it, since the brake pedal becomes something of a special case rather than just the ordinary way to stop.

    “You worked for the Obamas, didn’t you?” Leavitt said to Jones.

    “Yes, I did,” he said. Jones had, in fact, worked from 2009 to 2018 as a senior medical leader in the White House. At the end of his presidency, Barack Obama, a fitness fanatic rumored to allow himself precisely seven almonds a night, was 55 years old.

    “Who is healthier, Obama or President Trump?” I asked.

    Trump stared across the desk, making eye contact with Jones. Jones didn’t hesitate.

    “President Trump,” he said.

    Trump nodded. There was no sign of a smile, as if there could not have been any other answer to that question.

    “Write that,” he said, turning to me.
