Trump said "We saved millions of lives - the Congo as an example, 10 million died, they were heading for 10 million very quickly."
Leaving aside the overinflation of figures, this is nonsense as the following from Human Rights Watch shows: I posted this on another thread.
"US President Donald Trump has repeatedly—and incorrectly—claimed that peace has been established in eastern Congo. An initial framework signed in June did nothing to stem atrocities in the region. Human Rights Watch documented a string of massacres by the Rwandan-backed M23 armed group in Rutshuru before the ink was dry: clear evidence that signatures alone do not protect civilians."

Trump has never been interested in facts (nor peace for that matter) but only in ego and being recognised.
In fact, the Nobel Peace Prize would suit him. It was set up by the inventor of dynamite after he woke up to read his obituary in a newspaper. It had been incorrectly published after the death of his brother but he decided he didn't want to be known for inventing the instrument of death and destruction and so gave much of his fortune to setting up the prize fund.
In 1918 Fritz Haber won the prize for his development of the Haber process for manufacturing ammonia. I don't think the presenter of this video was much of a fan.
