President Donald Trump said that his so-called Board of Peace "might" replace the United Nations.
During a Tuesday press conference, Trump was asked about the future of his new project.
"One, do you want your Board of Peace to replace the UN?" the reporter wondered.
"Well, it might. I mean, the UN just hasn't been very helpful," Trump replied. "I'm a big fan of the UN's potential, but it has never lived up to its potential. The UN should have settled every one of the wars that I settled."
"I never went to them. I never even thought to go to them," he added. "I believe you gotta let the UN continue because the potential is so great."
