Congressman Andy Barr has been a star. He loves Kentucky so much, and he's going to be a phenomenal, he's going to be just an absolutely phenomenal senator. So I just want to let people know, he's been my friend, he's always been with me. I won Kentucky by a lot, by many, many, many points. A record, we got the all-time record, and I won it every time, all three times, all three primaries six times in a row. But you love me, I love you, and it's the way it works when you win a lot. And I just want to say that Andy Barr is going to be a great senator. He has my complete and total endorsement. He's going all the way. He will never let you down. He's a solid person who is really something very special. Andy Barr will never let you down. He's got my endorsement, and he's going to do a great job. Thank you very much, everybody.

"Speaker in video claims to have won Kentucky by an 'all-time record' margin, across 'all three primaries six times in a row'"
Unverifiable

The phrasing is garbled/ambiguous in the transcript ('all three primaries six times in a row' does not correspond to a clear, checkable electoral count), and this is a spoken claim within amplified video content rather than a written assertion by the subject in this post.
