Trump gives himself an ‘A’ for effort

President Trump said Tuesday he would give himself an “A plus” for effort but a “C” for getting his administration’s message out to America.

“In terms of messaging, I would give myself a C or a C plus,” Trump told “Fox & Friends” in response to a question about how he’d grade his first month as president.

“Because I think I’ve done great things, but I don’t think I have — I and my people, I don’t think we’ve explained it well enough to the American public,” Trump added.

In other areas, Trump believes he’s doing a much better job.

“I think in terms of effort, which means something but I give myself an A plus, OK, effort. But that’s, you know, results are more important,” he said in the Fox News Channel interview.

“In terms of achievement, I think I’d give myself an A,” he said. “I think I get an A in terms of what I’ve actually done, but in terms of messaging, I’d give myself a C or a C plus.”
