Fact check: This tweet was posted by Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump.
Verdict: misleading — Trust Score 15/100
The Instagram post shares a fabricated screenshot of a tweet falsely attributed to Donald Trump. The claims within the fake tweet regarding Obama and Biden starting a 47-year war and the creation of a 'Hormuz Peace Board' are entirely false. While Trump has a 'Board of Peace' related to Gaza, it is not the one described in the screenshot.

Trump @realDonaldTrump · 54m This war was started by BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA and JOE BIDEN and we've been fighting it for over 47 years now! I'm putting an end to it because I am the Peace President! This week I will be creating the Hormuz Peace Board where our so called coward NATO allies are not welcome, many real allies have already expressed desire to join this once in a lifetime opportunity to secure the Hormuz for peace!

Claims analyzed (4)
- false: This tweet was posted by Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump.
Multiple fact-checking organizations and the White House have confirmed that this specific tweet is a fabricated screenshot and does not appear on Donald Trump's official social media accounts or archives. - false: This war was started by BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA and JOE BIDEN.
Barack Obama became president in 2009, and Joe Biden became president in 2021. It is historically impossible for them to have started a war that has been fought for over 47 years (which would place its origin in the late 1970s). - false: we've been fighting it for over 47 years now!
No major US war has been continuously fought for 47 years and initiated by Presidents Obama and Biden. This timeframe is factually incorrect. - false: This week I will be creating the Hormuz Peace Board where our so called coward NATO allies are not welcome, many real allies have already expressed desire to join this once in a lifetime opportunity to secure the Hormuz for peace!
There is no credible evidence or news reports confirming the creation of a 'Hormuz Peace Board' by Donald Trump with the stated conditions. While Trump has a 'Board of Peace' focused on Gaza reconstruction, it is distinct from the one described in the fabricated tweet.
