Trump can't imagine anyone other than himself being Time person of the year


@stucam7771 Nov 22

Trump can't imagine anyone other than himself being Time person of the year?

Really?

I'd throw in

Jamal Khashoggi
Kamala Harris
Fred Guttenberg
Dr Christine Ford
Beto O'Rourke
Stormy Daniels
Jim Acosta

And of course, Robert Mueller

Anyone else...

"REAL" Cover as opposed to those fake TIME covers he has of himself as Person of the Year. Well I don't think it worked last year and his shtick should be old by now.

what a pile of manure he is. He is stupid, but is anyone that stupid? Not that it really matters, but at some level, he probably knows what a loser he is.

...when we each posted that Trump probably doesn’t have any idea that being TIME’s person of the year is not always an honor - Hitler was named such in 1938.

Please, please, please, TIME. Any one but Trump.

Controversial choices

Despite the magazine's frequent statements to the contrary, the designation is often regarded as an honor, and spoken of as an award or prize, simply based on many previous selections of admirable people.[7] However, Time magazine points out that controversial figures such as Adolf Hitler (1938), Joseph Stalin (1939 and 1942), Nikita Khrushchev (1957) and Ayatollah Khomeini (1979) have also been granted the title for their impacts.[8]


It's not always an "honor" to get it.
