President Trump on Sunday gave himself an A-plus on his presidency, but questioned whether he could get an even higher rating.
Look, I hate to do it, but I will do it, I would give myself an A-plus, he told Fox Newss Chris Wallace. Is that enough? Can I go higher than that?
Trump has repeatedly given himself high marks on his presidency. In April, he also gave himself an A-plus, and last year, rated himself a 10 on his handling of the 2017 hurricanes in Puerto Rico.
Trumps interview with Wallace aired Sunday, the day after Trump visited California amid several major wildfires and after a deadly shooting at the Borderline Bar and Grill in Thousand Oaks.
