Time's Person of the Year:

[shenmue]

Tronald Dump.

[unblock]

1. Already joining the ranks of hitler and Stalin

[KewlKat]

2. Are they Effing CRAZY!!! The man that will destroy our nation and possibly the world!

I swear I will never read that rag again, no matter what, so help me.

This must be FAKE news, right?

[eShirl]

5. person who had most impact on history, for better OR worse

[RKP5637]

3. No, really???

[eShirl]

4. Should've been his master, Putin.

[BainsBane]

17. That would have made for an interesting cover

With Putin as the puppet master pulling little Donny Pinocchio's strings.

[octoberlib]

6. So were Hitler and Stalin.

[mfcorey1]

7. Nauseating but he did dominate the news with the help of all the MSM.

[question everything]

8. Thought so, or it was going to be the angry voter

Get one flipping his finger at the rest of the world. The way we had Uncle Sam Wants You.

In 1980, or 1982 when former NY mayor Ed Koch was thinking of running for governor, he described a rural voter as someone who drives pickup truck and wearing gingham shirt.

Today I would add a gun slinging on his shoulder..

[deminks]

9. Did they get his multiple chins?

I refuse to look at it.

[Vinca]

10. People collect the covers and ManBaby will look great next to the real Fuhrer.

[Mike Nelson]

11. I find TIME's annual contest...

...dumb. However, he is the clear "winner" of this stupid title. Trump is a negative pick. They pick both good and bad people.

[still_one]

12. When Time choose Giuliani as "person of the year", I felt it was pure politics because the person

who had the most impact on the world was bin laden, but because of public pressure, they choose it to Giuliani.

[Mike Nelson]

13. That was...

...an astonishingly awful pick. TIME is a historically Conservative Republican publication, also. That showed with Rudy.

[Johonny]

14. It's hard to argue against it. He destroyed American politics and is about to ruin the country

in ways the morons that voted for him have no understanding. They won't get their country back. What we all get is...the greatest unknown presidency since the 1800s. It s likely to suck but how bad will it suck?

[BainsBane]

15. This guy was person of the year too

It's not an endorsement. Just an acknowledgment of his influence.

[TwilightZone]

16. As I noted in another thread...

It helps to remember that Time's Person of the Year often has more to do with impact and results than it does positive achievements. Their explanation for why they're making him POTY is loaded with some pretty overt criticism.

He's Person of the Year largely because he somehow won the presidency in spite of running as an unstable demagogue. I think that's the point they're making.
