The elected president of USA Donald Trump was appointed “Person of the Year” by the magazine Time. Thus, he recognized him as the individual who exerted the greatest influence on world affairs “for better or worse.” To celebrate the magazine’s cover reveal, Trump will ring the opening bell at the NYSEAccording to a source close to the matter, cnn.
Time announced Trump’s election in X this Thursday morning and is reflected with the first recognition that the magazine gave him in 2016, after his unexpected rise to the presidency. This time, the performance caps a remarkable comeback and resurgence that has the potential to upend modern American politics.
Time recognized Donald Trump as person of the year
Despite the magazine’s declining circulation, Time magazine’s Person of the Year remains an annual cultural touchstone, and the honor became something of an obsession for Trump over the years. A Time magazine cover that named him Person of the Year in 2009 displayed several of his golf clubs, The Washington Post reported almost a decade later, although that issue was never printed.
Through his Twitter account, Trump regularly commented on the annual selection and amplified opinions that suggested it should be him.. In 2011, he criticized the magazine for choosing “those who protest” in a nod to the revolutions breaking out in the Arab world and the Occupy movement in the United States.
A year later, he said Time had “lost all credibility” because it had not included him on its list of the 100 most influential people of the year. The Republican privately complained about the magazine’s elections, particularly when singer Taylor Swift won in 2023.
The appointment of Time: a complete symbolism
Over time, the title became a symbol of the widespread fame and respect that Trump sought, but they seemed out of reach. In 2015, when the magazine named the then chancellor of Germany, Angela Merkel, Trump wrote on Twitter: “I told you that @TIME magazine would never choose me as person of the year despite being the overwhelming favorite.”
Even after Time magazine named Trump its person of the year in 2016 (which it called “a great honor” on social media), it closely followed the results. The following year, Trump claimed he was back in the running for the honor, but declined an interview or photo op. Time magazine questioned his version of events.
Despite his regular criticism of the media, Trump has regularly allowed traditional media outlets, including Time, access to his entourage. In April of this year he gave an extensive interview to the magazine at his club in Palm Beach. Harris turned down a similar opportunity, the magazine’s owner said in October.
Who is Peter Lamelas, the ambassador chosen by Donald Trump for Argentina
The president-elect of the United States, Donald Trump, continues with the formation of his government ahead of the inauguration that will take place on January 20, 2025. In this context, the Republican leader confirmed Peter Lamelas, Cuban doctor, as the next US ambassador to Argentina.
Lamelas already met President Javier Milei during the dinner that Trump offered at his mansion in Mar-a-Lago. Prior to his official designation, the doctor must pass the formal hearing at the Capitol and his arrival in Buenos Aires is expected to occur during the month of April.
