Subject: A+ for effortPresident Trump is blaming the controversy that has plagued his first month in office on mediocre messaging — and not his policies or proposals themselves. Asked on “Fox and Friends” how he would grade his presidency, Trump said he would give himself a “A” for effort and achievement but only a “C or C-plus” for his ability to communicate his successes to public. “I think in terms of, um, effort which means something, but I give myself an A-plus, OK? Effort,” Trump said. “But results are more important. In terms of messaging, I would give myself a C or a C-plus.” "Our country is declining because we reward effort, not results! All these people want to be just given things and not have to work for them!" - generic millennial, immigrant, and poor person basher. "I deserve an A+ for effort." - the man they voted for. |
