TIME Names Trump Person Of The Year But Takes Back Handed Swipes
TIME had to pick president Trump as their person of the year. But the publication made sure to take several swipes at him while doing it.
As we highlighted earlier in the week, Kamala Harris was named as a contender. However, had TIME picked anyone other than Trump, particularly the most awful presidential candidate in history, it would’ve been a laughing stock.
So Trump it is.

But along with this and the interview he gave to the publication came ‘fact checks.’

TIME’s article explaining why they picked Trump as person of the year also states “Now we watch as members of Congress, international institutions, and global leaders once again align themselves with his whims.”
It continues with the smears, “The carousel of Trumpworld characters spins anew. This time, we think we know what to expect. Supporters cheer even his promises to take revenge on his enemies and dismantle the government. In a matter of weeks, Trump will be returning to the Oval Office with his intentions clear: tariff imports, deport millions, and threaten the press. Put RFK Jr. in charge of vaccines. Chance war with Iran.”
Your woman of the year was a man.

You dirty scumbags baited him so that you could fact check him. The media is fucking disgusting.

This is why nobody bothers with your shitrag anymore. Why bother putting him on the front if you’re only to bitch & moan about it. The world will be better off when Time Magazine no longer exists.

Within the interview, Trump urged that his second election victory is not a “comeback,” as he noted “I’ve always been here.”
“See, I don’t view it as a comeback. And people have said it was the greatest comeback in political history, and beyond even political history plus. They said, add sports and add everything else. But I don’t view it that way. I think I ran a great campaign. I think I was popular,” Trump asserted.
Trump appeared today at the opening of the New York stock exchange with a TIME person of the year backdrop.
