We need to get out of Iran and back focused on the American people and the domestic issues here and champion peace through strength. 26 of my 30 years, we were at a forever war. I don't want that to happen. Sorry. 20 out of my 36 years we were at a forever war and I don't want that to happen again. I don't want my son in the future to have to go off and fight another war. I don't want any mother or father to have to worry about sending their son or daughter overseas to champion someone else's war. (45:05–45:11)
