President Scores 'F---' on Campaign Promise to Make World Stop Laughing at America
New grades are out for president Trump's first year in office. PolitiFact grades each president on their performance compared to the promises he made during the campaign. Trump scored 'work in progress' for most of his campaign promises; however, the fact checking site took an extreme measure and gave its first ever 'F---' score to a politician's promise. And what campaign promise did president Trump score an 'F---' ? His promise to make the world stop laughing at America.
Spokeswoman for PolitiFact, Tammy Holloway, tells Probably Legit, "We actually had to add two extra minuses to the lowest grade we have ever given in an attempt to adequately judge just how poorly Mr. Trump did on this particular promise. I can't stress enough how hard everybody is laughing at America. Countries that had previously never even chuckled at the United States, now break out into open, howling laughter at just the mention of the phrase 'President Donald Trump'. It's actually inspired many impersonators and comedy careers in the poorest countries around the world. There is not a single country that is not laughing at America right now. Including America."
Tammy continues, warning, "What we're seeing now at the beginning of his second year in office is a transition towards more cynical, nihilistic, and darker humor. I'm not sure if there are enough minuses we could add to the score if the president continues on his current course."
Sarah Huckabee Sanders declined to comment on the grade.
