UNDER A PRESIDENT TRUMP. OKAY, WE'RE GOING TO MOVE TO A LIGHTNING ROUND. WE'VE HIT THE HALFWAY POINT JUST ABOUT IN THIS DEBATE. 15 SECOND ANSWERS HERE, RELATIVELY QUICK. FIRST ONE STARTING WITH SENATOR MORSE. WHAT IS ONE THING YOU BELIEVE GOVERNOR SUNUNU COULD HAVE DONE BETTER DURING HIS TENURE? YEAH, GOVERNOR SUNUNU AND I HAD A REAL DEBATE ABOUT CLOSING ANYTHING DURING COVID. AND I THINK WE SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT. SENATOR AYOTTE, ONE THING GOVERNOR SUNUNU COULD HAVE DONE BETTER, I THINK THAT WORKING WITH THE LEGISLATURE ON REDISTRICTING WAS IMPORTANT. BUT ALSO WE HAVE A RETIREMENT ISSUE WITH OUR GROUP TWO RETIREMENT, OUR FIRST RESPONDERS. I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE ADDRESS THAT SO THAT WE CAN KEEP THE BEST FIRST RESPONDERS, OUR POLICE, OUR FIRE. THEY DO SUCH IMPORTANT WORK FOR OUR STATE. NEXT QUESTION, STARTING WITH YOU, SENATOR AYOTTE. BOTH OF YOU HAVE FAMILY LANDSCAPING COMPANIES, AND YOU'VE BEEN OUT ON THE WINTER PLOWING RUNS. WHAT IS THE MOST DIFFICULT KIND OF DRIVEWAY TO PLOW? SENATOR AYOTTE. I THINK ONE THAT HAS A PRETTY STEEP HILL IS A TOUGH ONE TO PLOW. BUT OBVIOUSLY MY HUSBAND, JOE, OWNED A LANDSCAPING AND SNOW PLOWING BUSINESS FOR 15 YEARS, AND I SAW HOW HARD HE WORKED EVERY SINGLE DAY. MOST IMPORTANTLY, NOW HE HAS PROBABLY EVEN A HARDER JOB BECAUSE HE TEACHES MIDDLE SCHOOL MATH AND I LOVE THE WORK THAT HE DOES EVERY DAY. AND HEARING HOW HE'S WORKING WITH KIDS AND OUR KIDS ARE BEHIND A MASK, SO WE NEED TO IMPROVE OUR SYSTEM AND MAKE SURE THAT WE GET OUR KIDS AHEAD. SENATOR MORSE, HARDEST DRIVEWAY TO PLOW. YEAH, I'VE BEEN IN IT FOR 36 YEARS AND DID IT BEFORE THAT. AND THE I REALLY THINK THE HARDEST DRIVEWAY TO PLOW IS THE ONE YOU PLOW ON. AFTER 30 HOURS OF WORKING STRAIGHT, I CAN IMAGINE THAT. OKAY. SENATOR MORSE, WHAT'S THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE SOMEONE HAS EVER GIVEN YOU? OH, I THINK THE BEST PIECE OF ADVICE I'VE EVER GOTTEN WAS ACTUALLY CAME FROM MEL THOMPSON. HE DIDN'T GIVE IT TO ME DIRECT, BUT AX, THE TAX IS A MOTTO THAT I'VE LIVED UNDER AS SENATE PRESIDENT, AND I THINK IT WORKS FOR NEW HAMPSHIRE. YOU KNOW, LOW TAXES ARE A RESULT OF LOW SPENDING. SENATOR AYOTTE, LISTEN, MORE THAN YOU TALK SO THAT YOU CAN LEARN SOMETHING, OKAY? SENATOR AYOTTE, DID VICE PRESIDENT MIKE PENCE DO THE RIGHT THING ON JANUARY SIX, 2021? YES. OR NO? FIRST OF ALL, AS I LOOK AT IT, WE NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT OUR LAWS ARE ENFORCED. AND HE WANTED TO FOLLOW THE LAW. AND SO HE HE DID THAT. AND I UNDERSTAND THAT. IS THAT A YES? I THINK THAT FOLLOWING THE LAW IN OUR CONSTITUTION IS IMPORTANT. SENATOR MORSE, YES OR NO? DID MIKE PENCE DO THE RIGHT THING ON JANUARY 6TH? NO, NO, I BELIEVE I BELIEVE THE FACT IS WE OUGHT TO FIRST MAKE SURE WE HAVE THE FACTS AND THEN WE FOLLOW THE LAW BASED ON THE FACTS. AND, SENATOR MORSE, LAST LIGHTNING QUESTION TO YOU HERE. SHOULD NEW HAMPSHIRE ALLOW ONLINE CASINO GAMES THROUGH THE SAME APPS THAT OFFER SPORTS
