EDITED: Change link to proper article instead of a stupid video, and changed associated text to match new URL.

Disgusting, in my opinion.

    I place no credibility in time’s person of the year. Hitler was times person of the year once.

    Hell, I was time magazine’s person of the year in 2006! I worked at Wendys that year…I didn’t do nothin!

    Hitler was also person of the year in like 1938. Means nothing other than impact on society

    Being Times person of the year means you have had a significant impact, not that you are necessarily a good person. It says nothing about doing good deeds.

      The whole NYSE thing though is blatantly sucking up to Trump. And since Times already gave it to him once, maybe don’t feed his overinflated ego even more? Because there is no way he is going to take it as a negative, as his desperate desire to be on the cover has shown.

        Lol, yeah, the billionaire owned main stream media is completely benign an neutral in its coverage. 🙄

        Honestly, what will it take for some of you to stop taking the world at the face value those in power are selling you as reality?

    Gross.

    I love (hate actually) how his supporters always default into chanting, “USA… USA… USA…” while in reality they are for dividing the states, not uniting them.

    It’s just a braindead idiocracy chant without meaning at this point.
