Now THAT'S how to photograph a cruel autocrat. None of the heroic godlike Hollywood treatment they gave Trump. As I posted - Trump prob beats off to Time's picture of him. I guess Time figures it'll make more money, or lose less, by catering to his ego and by selling the image his fans have of him.
Hardly. It’s a good magazine that does some excellent reporting. Did you read the article on Nayib Bukele, President of El Salvador? Another one of Trump’s heroes.
So, I see the point of reminding us that Hitler and Putin have been named Time's person of the year and that it's not an award. The problem is, Trump obviously will see it as an award and he's out there ringing the NYSE bell because of this "honor," so really it's an award.
Not sure, but believe their criteria is a person that has done something (good or bad) to achieve notoriety. As crazy as it sounds, Trump did fit the bill.
They should name Giselle Pelicot Person of the Year as it is time they recognised how porn industries have rewired the brains of men to view women as things, akin to sex toys, not even human. It is now an epidemic.
And print media is wondering why it’s dying. Print BS like this and there you go. When you put him on the cover or give him a cheesy award, it normalizes his irrational behavior.
He controls one of the 2 major America political parties. Say what you want about Putin, but he’s probably one of the 10
Most important people to ever live.
The big luck break we have here, unlike Russia and its history of compliance to tyrannical government, is the wonderful 2nd Amendment that belongs to all Americans and allows every person and marginalized group the credible means of self defense ala 1776 style protesting or now 2024 Syria style
I look at that picture of Putin and remember when Bush 43 once looked into Putin’s eyes and said he saw his soul. How can anyone see a soul in that face? I almost choked when Bush first said that. After all this time, it’s clear there’s never been a soul in that man.
Unbelievable really. What’s up with the media shifts on the narrative. I mean now they all jump on the train? 🚊 is it still ‘fake news’ 📰 when it’s positive. Is it opportunistic media? #moneytalks
Yuck 🤢
Time magazine needs to get checked out by a team of psychologists...
There are much better people out there they could have showcased... philanthropists, scientists, passionate activists etc. why is the media always like this? SMH
Note, while Hitler's portrait appeared several times on Time's cover, none of portraits were used for Time's actual 1938 declaration of Hitler as "Man of the Year."
Worth reading this contemporary account of Hitler in the same Jan. 2 1938 issue of Time. One can easily see many parallels between pre-war Hitler and trump. This snippet from the article might very well be how we feel about trump in a year or two. https://time.com/archive/6598257/adolf-hitler-man-of-the-year-1938/
Time should have gone with Taylor Swift.
Or Joe Biden.
Think about Biden, an incumbent who stepped aside for the better of his country.
That is a quality to be honored.
Not orange 💩
NowPoopin has his blow hard in place with some help from greedyMurdoch(who put ratings&the almighty$ahead of Truth)&EM bought the election,beforeJD almost tankedit,45sfollowing orders from the bossman&turning our longtime allies into adversaries &weakeningUS,so our adversaries can get the upperhand!
45’s putty in Poopin’s hand! A man who loves flattery can be easily molded. Poopin knows how to pick ‘em so does TIME.
Poopin is just sitting back bidding his TIME!!!!
Earlier the Time cover went to Adolph Hitler in 1938. I'm sure Trump is enjoying the company he's keeping these days. How did those two rise to power, through deception and autocratic tactics, different from Trump? The full force of their villainy came after, as we fear four years of Trump now.

I think they deviate somewhat

Vlad the Bad.
Can America survive a trump presidency, when even the head of the FBI obeys in advance?
TIME PERSON OF THE YEAR - NICE WORK - CANCELING MY SUBSCRIPTION NOW!
All those piles of 💩 standing up there at one time gotta be close to the limit...
Neither will "Time."
Most important people to ever live.
Forget politics
Who cares about that Nazi Rag?
Stop watching the news because of their right-wing #MediaBias.
Join the #Progressive movement to defeat evil conservativism. Oppose Trump everywhere. Demand the democrats to be hard-line against fascist MAGA.

Comments had Harris been elected: "Slay Queen!", "Woman of the Century!", "Democracy restored!"
It's not an honor. It identifies the person with the most impact in the world, better or worse.
But, let's go with honor anyway.
Trump is "honored" to join Hitler, Stalin, Komeini, Nixon and Putin.
Especially if he gets snubbed this year.
Would be awesome
Or Joe Biden.
