Oh, right, Donald Trump. This is the first time I've ever heard of someone "turning down being named Time's Person of the Year." ( do they have that choice?) In other words, he didn't want to be shown as a runner-up to Taylor Swift, or whoever else, or was afraid (more likely) that this year's reasons would undermine and ridicule last year's reasons. Seriously, nine other presidents have been named twice (FDR three times). I doubt Dolt 45's reasons were that he didn't want to "be a hog" and accept the title twice. He DID want everyone to know he was in contention. Just another bizarre day in the life of DJT that we can all share...
