When he did something that at the time seemed sacrilege inside the Republican Party, he eviscerated the Bush-Cheney administration for the Iraq war and how it did it.

He spent 2016, 2020, and 2024, and all three of those campaigns in the last 90 days.

You can find plenty of clips, plenty of rally speeches where he said,

If you don't want new wars, vote for me.

If you vote for my opponent, I promise you they're going to start a war.
