While doing Rice Street Thursday afternoon, the Former Guy was allowed to “self report” his vitals, including his weight.

This number was 24 pounds less than his doc last reported and 71 pounds less than the average “over/under” on betting sites.

This is a clarifying moment. We should allow widespread “self reporting” of all sorts of things. As just one example, think of the savings if we didn’t need any of those new Internal Revenue Service agents.

Just ask everyone, including the Former Guy, on a postcard, “What was your income for 2023?” Similarly, just ask the FG, “What did you make on 18 and how many under par were you today?” “Where do you rank among all Presidents?”

And think of the time and money savings if we just asked him to self report on whether he committed any of the 91 felonies.
