Please tell me the meaning of this sentence " They could hardly be worse! "
 
In general, it means "It's almost impossible for them to be worse". However, I have no idea what "they" refers to in the picture you posted, nor what the sentence has to do with the title above the picture.

Did you want to mean that they have become so worse that it is impossible to be worse now?
 
Did you [STRIKE]want to[/STRIKE] mean that they have become so [STRIKE]worse[/STRIKE] bad that it is impossible for them to be worse? [STRIKE]now?[/STRIKE]

If that helps you understand it, yes.
