How readers graded Trump's first 100 days: 'Worst in American history'
Briefly

In the first 100 days of President Donald Trump's second term, public sentiment has been overwhelmingly negative, with a survey revealing that 71% of readers graded his performance with an 'F.' Many expressed dissatisfaction not only with the expected challenges but also with the worsening state of affairs, including economic turmoil and damage to international relations. Initial supporters voiced their disillusionment, citing disorganization and lack of direction, resulting in widespread fears about the nation's trajectory under Trump's leadership.
"In 100 days Trump and Musk have destroyed the economy, traumatized our immigrant community and destroyed education and human services," said Maureen C. from Raymond, New Hampshire.
"I expected it to be bad and actually it has been much, much worse," wrote Kathy M. of Quincy.
"I've had little doubt this administration was going to take us into some pretty rough territory, but wow. They've exceeded expectations in all of the worst possible ways," said Ben from Wellesley.
"I had high hopes for this president. Instead we have had the most disorganized administration in history," Dennis from Boston said.
