Donald Trump is not the only President of the United States that has been described as a narcissist and confabulator, but if Trump was in an Olympic-style competition among Bill Clinton, George W Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden, he would be the Gold medalist.

Let’s start with Trump’s confabulations about his claim to have settled eight wars. The eight conflicts that Trump has claimed to have “stopped” or resolved since returning to office in 2025, as part of his self-described role as the “president of peace,” are as follows, based on his public statements and social media posts:

Israel and Hamas (Gaza conflict): Trump claims credit for brokering a ceasefire in the two-year war, though Israel has continued to murder Palestinians — albeit at a reduced rate compared to the killing done prior to the ceasefire — and the deal’s durability is questioned.

Israel and Iran: He asserts he ended hostilities between these nations, likely referring to a brief 2025 flare-up or broader tensions, but no full-scale war was ongoing, and the situation remains volatile. Moreover, Trump ordered the bombing of Iran… Not exactly an action one associates with peace.

Pakistan and India: Trump has boasted about preventing a nuclear escalation between these rivals, claiming millions of lives were saved, though this appears to reference averted border skirmishes rather than an active war. India has explicitly disputed Trump’s claim of brokering a ceasefire in their border conflict (e.g., over Kashmir in May 2025).
