The time “Person” award is one of notoriety, not acclaim. But the publicity achieved is the point.

The part I skimmed isn’t bad. A telling point is the role the internet played. I also liked the reference to “smoking ruins” of the conventional political apparatus. Salt the earth it stood on and pee on the graves of those who ran it!

Time picked Hitler as person of the year in 1938. "Time picked Hitler as Man of the year in 1938." That was long before political correctness came along.

They are certainly not praising him. The end paragraph from the article describing their choice:
For reminding America that demagoguery feeds on despair and that truth is only as powerful as the trust in those who speak it, for empowering a hidden electorate by mainstreaming its furies and live-streaming its fears, and for framing tomorrows political culture by demolishing yesterdays, Donald Trump is TIMEs 2016 Person of the Year.

Some jerk at the supermarket turned Trump magazine covers around with the back side in front.

What’s a “Time Magazine”? Is that some glossy weekly rag that USED to be relevant?
Now, if World News Weekly or one of those papers that the MiB used to read ran this story, it would really be newsworthy!
