President Donald Trump has mentioned the nation’s longest war on his Twitter feed only once since becoming commander in chief.

But he’s raised the topic frequently in the past.

Tonight, in a national address, Trump is expected to announce plans to increase the number of U.S. troops deployed to the country in an effort to reverse recent advances by the Taliban and other opposition forces. If so, that strategy would mark a significant change of heart for Trump, who — before becoming president — repeatedly called a reduction in American intervention there.

Here’s a recap of the dozens of times Trump talked about his ideas for Afghanistan before entering the Oval Office:

Calls for withdrawal

We should leave Afghanistan immediately. No more wasted lives. If we have to go back in, we go in hard & quick. Rebuild the US first. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 1, 2013

We have wasted an enormous amount of blood and treasure in Afghanistan. Their government has zero appreciation. Let's get out! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) November 21, 2013
