The White House got schooled.

A retired English teacher in South Carolina said she received a letter from the White House that was full of grammatical errors.

Yvonne Mason, who taught in public schools for 17 years, told the Greenville News, that the letter President Trump signed was "stylistically appalling."

"I have never, ever, received a letter with this many silly mistakes," she said.

The White House had responded to her on May 3 after she sent the Trump administration a note about the Parkland shooting massacre.

She posted a photo of the letter to Facebook — complete with her edits made in purple ink — which went viral.

"Got a letter from Mr. Trump. Will be returning it tomorrow," the caption read.

"If it had been written in middle school, I'd give it a C or C-plus," Mason said. "If it had been written in high school, I'd give it a D."

Yvonne Mason, who taught in public schools for 17 years ...

So you're one of those responsible for churning out the current crop of retards who can't read, write, spell or speak proper English.

Trump is a very smart guy - just ask him, he'll tell you.

Doesn't say much for his "elite" education, does it?

The guy is a buffoon!

I don't get the petty jealousy and gratuitous cheap shot. Oh wait -- I do. It's a reason for the Dem-Media complex to celebrate their own sophomoric pettiness.

*yawn*: MSM breathlessly reports that a petty ingrate of a disturbed, no-class "teacher" and Leftist attention-ho has "embarrassed" a "dumb" President. But it ain't working. The story is boomer-ranging. Plus she only reinforced her own dopiness by invoking, "y'all" in her responded "correction". Yes, instead of a gracious, "THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT".

Moreover, you can't be serious about actually gauging the education, intelligence, people skill, and IQ of President Trump by THIS media-contrived trivial 5th-Class Priority letter sent to a typical petty Nasty Democrat Women. Or can you?

Trump's "education", IQ, savvy, and commitment to traditional American principles is on a whole different planet. We finally get a President who smashes the NWO-Dem-GOP monopoly on power...and here you are trashing Trump. NOT for disagreement on policy or corruption but for...THIS??

My friend, you're much better than this.

Never read his tweets, have you? Trump is not, contrary to the prevailing opinion here, a genius.

Chyeah -- let's all bow to Yvonne Mason, presumed life-time spinster, Gaia-worshipper and typical man-hating Democrat. "BRAVA!!"

Below is her "stylistically appalling", presumed life-style and "family":

From another article: "Mason acknowledges the letter was likely written by a staffer."

Actually it wasn't.

She highlighted in yellow every time he said "I". Fine. But that's not a grammatical error.

Second, she claimed that the words "Nation", "Federal", "States", and "President" should not have been capitalized. But the Government Publishing Office Style Manual says they should be, and in letters from Presidents Barack Obama and George W. Bush that constituents posted online, they were.

Take those away and what errors are left? None.

Most teachers and almost ALL professors are filthy fucking snowflakes. Only MSM libtard followers give a shit what this pig has to say. Just look at her picture. She looks like a tree hugging rug muncher.

She reminds me of Ralphie's teacher -- who then comes across Obama's paper:
