U.S. President Donald Trump applauds his supporters after speaking at the Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC, in Oxon Hill in Maryland, U.S., February 24, 2017.

President Donald Trump said he would give himself an "A+" for effort during his presidency, but only a "C or C+" for messaging, during an interview with "Fox and Friends" that aired Tuesday morning.

Host Ainsley Earhardt asked Trump how he would grade himself, "from an A to an F."

Trump said he would give himself an A+ for effort, "but results are more important."

To that end, the president said he would give himself an A for achievement, but only a C or C+ for messaging.

"I think I've done great things, but I don't think I - I and my people - I don't think we've explained it well enough to the American public," Trump said.

The president is set to give an address to a joint session of Congress on Tuesday.
