Before I even arrive at the Oval Office, shortly after we win the presidency, I will have the horrible war between Russia and Ukraine settled, and we will restore, as we had just four years ago, peace through strength. They respected our country and they respected your President.

Trump had previously used the "before I even arrive at the Oval Office" phrase in #May 2023 and would again use it in Philadelphia the following month in #June 2024
