WASHINGTON

After more than two months in office, America’s new president, Republican Donald Trump, got a grade of F from 1 in 3 voters, according to a new McClatchy-Marist Poll.

By contrast, the same number graded predecessor Democrat Barack Obama’s performance a B as he approached his 100th day in office.

“Every time he speaks . . . it is so negative,” said Whitni Milton, 31, a professional singer from Atlanta who participated in the poll. “I have never seen someone who has riled up so many people.”

Milton, who generally votes for Democrats but was so disgusted with both candidates that she sat out the presidential election in November, said she would gladly take the last Republican president, George W. Bush, over Trump. “I am not a Bush supporter,” she said. “I will take Bush 10 times over.”

1. If voters could go back and change Obama's grade I

Would expect an A or A+ right about now. At least the voters with half a brain (excludes Trump voters).

2. Well honey

you should have voted for the best candidate Hillary instead of staying home.

7. +1

3. I'd say it's highly likely she was "disgusted by both candidates"...

...because of the all the Russian propaganda she saw during the election.

4. "Disgusted by both candidates" - the repukes played you perfectly

Even though they couldn't convince you to vote for the repuke candidate, by spreading enough vicious lies about Hillary and convincing you to stay home on election day they gained a vote. THAT is what works for them, keeping people away from the polls whether it be by purging of voter rolls, making it harder to vote for minorities and working people, or convincing people not to vote. If everyone voted who was eligible we'd have had a huge Democratic victory.

6. + 1000 n/t.

15. You think it was the Russians that turned Georgia Red?

She's from Atlanta.

5. Dear Whitni Milton, STFU. You didn't vote, which means you voted for what we got.

This is your fault as much as it is the really dumb folks who voted for tRump. You should look in the mirror and say these words, "I was hoodwinked by Russian Fake News." Go ahead. And remember that you're no better than the droves who followed Hitler down that nationalistic road nearly a century ago. People like you are the problem you whine on about.

And because YOU DID NOT VOTE, your opinion does not matter, so just shut the fuck up!!! When you vote, then you can have a voice. Hillary had every right to deserve your vote, but you were too stupid to see what a wonderful person she is, instead choosing to believe the garbage propaganda instead. STFU!!!

8. Drumpf is YOURS Whitni Milton. Own him.

This part is interesting to note -

<...>

Nearly 6 in 10 voters —59 percent — said Trump’s conduct as president embarrassed them, according to the poll. Only 31 percent said his conduct made them proud, while 9 percent were unsure.

Even more — 70 percent, including 45 percent of Republicans and three-quarters of independents — found Trump’s regular use of Twitter reckless and distracting. Only 19 percent said it was effective and informative, while 11 percent were unsure.

Sixty percent of voters said they did not trust Trump and his administration to deliver accurate and factual information to the public, either at all or not very much. Thirty-nine percent said they trusted them a great deal or a good amount.

11. (Old joke warning) I wouldn't give him an F

but, unfortunately, there's nothing lower.

[Liberalagogo]

12. Because

having a tantrum is more important than voting.

13. See, how's that "sat out the presidential election" working for ya, there?

Moron!

14. He needs to be kicked out an get an incomplete.

16. Keep in mind...

that lots of people say "I didn't vote" because they voted for the orange asshat and wouldn't be caught dead admitting it now.

I don't know that this is the case, but I have a pretty good suspicion that there are some Repubs who did vote for him but are now saying they didn't vote at all to save face.
