First of all, you know, the hit on me, missing votes, I find to be kind of quite interesting. In the beginning of my time here in Congress, My son was actually in the nicu, so I missed a large tranche of votes then. And then also, I was a top surrogate for President Trump during the campaign. I was the one that campaigned for him in Iowa and in Georgia and in Pennsylvania and in Nevada and in California. (07:36–07:41)
