Trump Named TIME’s Person of the Year, Internet Melts Down
Never change, internet.
It’s the time of year for the annual naming of TIME magazine’s Person of the Year. This year, the legacy publication selected President-elect, Donald Trump.
One can dream:
@TIME I expect the internet to react calmly and maturely about this.

Because electing him president wasn’t normalizing?
. @TIME has unfortunately – but unsurprisingly – normalized Trump by naming him their Person of the Year.

I’m pretty sure “President of the Divided States of America” is not a compliment. I’d love to read the actual article on the pick (okay, not really, but it must be a masterpiece of backhanded compliments).
Of course if it was the other way around with Her Royal Hagness at the helm the heading would have been completely different and utterly flattering!
And liberals wonders why no one likes them.
The cover article is by Michael Scherer and is very ugly. No journalistic balance at all. Then there is a hagiographic article about Hillary Clinton by a hack named Alter. It’s probably the article they would have published as the cover article if HRC had been named Person of the Year.
I’m fairly sure the internet melts down an average of once every fortnight these days.
If you refuse to suffer alone, don’t tell us ahead of time.
Otherwise you will suffer alone.
Donald Trump = Honey Badger
And Honey Badger don’t care:

Donald J. Trump is, indeed, Man of the Year where it counts the most, in the eyes of millions upon millions of Americans. As for the rag-mag that is shell of its former self, even if the article was complimentary I don’t know that I would consider it an honor.
I’d like to see the internet really melt down.
President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize!
Heck obummer got it just for being elected why not The Donald.
Might even cause a mass exodus of liberals.
Jugears got it for being half black. Plus he stopped the oceans from rising.
Doubtful people cared as much about the choice and he cares about SNL.
Time Magazine became a leftist tabloid long ago.
What?!?!?!?!?! Are you telling me a magazine that nobody reads said something?
