Time to name Donald Trump Person of the Year: report
The Hill ^ | 12/11/2024 | Dominick Mastrangelo

Time is planning to name President-elect Trump its annual “Person of the Year,” according to a new report.

The legacy news magazine plans to announce the decision Thursday morning, Politico reported on Wednesday, citing three people familiar with the plans and noting Trump would be in New York City that morning to ring the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange.

In a statement to The Hill, Time said it “does not comment on its annual choice for Person of the Year prior to publication. This year’s choice will be announced tomorrow morning, Dec. 12, on Time.com.”

In a description of Trump on its finalists webpage, Time called Trump’s election win “a stunning political comeback.”

“He has reshaped the American electorate, activating young male voters who propelled him to a decisive victory that saw him win the popular vote for the first time and turn every swing state red,” the outlet wrote. “Trump’s remarkable victory comes after he lost the 2020 election to Biden and repeatedly refused to accept the results. His 2024 win is history-making in multiple ways: he will be the oldest President in U.S. history, and he was convicted earlier this year by a New York jury of 34 counts of fraud, making him the first convicted felon to be elected President.”

In the words of LL Cool J, “Don’t call it a ‘comeback’!”

Well, he kind of has to be, which probably is why they won’t do it.

I’ll bet a million dollars they’re going to find a link between this and Hitler being named Time Magazine man of the year in 1938.
The news reader story will start out: “Time Magazine, which named Adolf Hitler as their man of the year in 1938 before he plunged the world into a global war costing hundreds of millions of lives, has this year named Donald Trump as their man of the year.”

Counting just legitimate votes, ie. those cast by actual breathing US citizens on or before 11:59 PM on election day, he’s the first since FDR to win three elections. And I will never be convinced otherwise.
