The one award Donald Trump is obsessed with winning

In mid-December, Time magazine announced its “Person of the year.” Or, really, “Persons of the Year” as President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris were named the winners. In the latest episode of The Point, CNN’s Chris Cillizza explains why this announcement really stings for President Donald Trump.

    1. @Richard Rawlins All that is subjective. It isn’t concrete. First of all, what is killing people? Covid is. NOT Trump. I don’t know of any lies that Trump has made. I’m not saying he has never lied, I just haven’t seen him lie, at least not about anything big or important. How does one show “enough” empathy? As for him showing remorse… that implies he directly was the cause of whatever he should be remorseful for. The economy around the entire world fell, so what standard are you holding Trump to? You’ll dislike him, if anyone dies from covid, or if the economy falls, or if unemployment raises. After China knowingly released the virus in November of 2019, the entire world suffered. The United States was one of the least to suffer, and you attack the leader for what exactly? You think that the second he caught whiff of the virus he should’ve
      1. closed the country from people entering or leaving
      2. quarantined the entire country indefinitely
      3. funded research to release a vaccine 7 years ago
      4. kept everyone’s job secure while everyone quarantined and worked from home
      5. kept the economy to 100% somehow
      6. enforced social distancing and mask wearing with police force
      7. only allowed unaccountable mail-in ballots

      The virus has a 0.016% mortality rate. That’s NOTHING compared to the billions of people who WILL suffer if the economy crashes. Have some perspective. Freedom is infinitely more important than health. Always remember that

  1. It all makes sense now, remember when he wouldnt shake Angela Merkel’s hand. Now we get it he hates her for the time cover she got.

    1. johnny whatthefuck – And yet, that’s never good enough for him. He has to lie and say he got it more times than he did.

      By the way, isn’t Time’s the one where the person doesn’t necessarily have to do good things? Didn’t Osama bin Laden get it one year, or am I thinking about another magazine?

    2. @Gregg hilarious fake news bro. Strange how this “fraud” was never alleged in any of the 50+ lawsuits by the Trumpf campaign. Funny how these “fraud” claims were debunked by everyone from the FBI, cyber security, DoJ etc etc. All deep state, right 🤪😂

    1. @Dee
      your gop masters want to give 100 bucks for the month.
      going to get nothing, big corps first. they need the billions.

    2. @Pablo Lopez and its not supposed to be moved until 2026. Not quite sure as to the rule behind that it can’t be moved for 6 yrs. Katie Porter was asking him about it in a congressional hearing last week or the week before. Not sure if he did anyway or not. There some legality to it though.

    3. @Patricia Henderson I’m not stating the move was illegal, I”m sure he had every right to do it. But that move was obviously NOT to help the American people get their stimulus checks.

    1. Because it’s your great idea, consider placing in on change.org as a petition. I would definitely sign for Time or any other magazine to use that as their cover.

    1. @Js Somewhere That’s it. I understand trump may favor that or newsmax over fox to spread his manure to his cult.

    1. I strongly agree with you. But I also like how this will piss off the current president.
      But yes this was covid year and healthcare workers/epidemiologists/”vaccine” scientists should have won.

    2. @SigmaTauri2 yeah people who put their lives on the line are totally worth less than a political Jab. literal tds

  2. 2:14
    TIME did pick the person that ruined Germany as person of the year. It was back in 1938 and the winner was a guy named Adolf

    1. @Waldemar Marchesi the country and the world will be 10000000x better off, We will be winning and winning now that the LIAR is headed for Prison

    1. @Ian Dalziel They’ll all find a reason to disapprove of that one too I’m afraid but I’ve got no prob giving it a thumbs up.

    1. @santa fe, bantayan island life this statement is NOTHING BUT LIES. “The intentional errors lead to bulk adjudication of ballots with no oversight, no transparency, and no audit trail. Totally WRONG. A flat out LIE

  3. You didn’t get snubbed 44 times, Chris. Did you forget when you, yes “You,” were Time’s 2006 Person Of The Year?

    1. Jesus Christ said in Acts 26:18 ” to open their eyes, in order to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in Me.” For those Democrats who have understood and researched the cheating and fraud and have allowed themselves to be deceived by the Democrat run media, that is controlled by Satan, think hard about what you are supporting and the path you are on.

    2. @Intelligent Design The White House is a criminal operation. The Republican party is dead, replaced by a hideous racist cult. As the cult leader, Trump is the force behind a per capita rate of COVID deaths that is over 33 times higher than that of Australia, over 37 times higher than Japan, over 62 times higher than South Korea, and over 90 times higher than that of New Zealand. You are the one who is dancing with the Devil.

    3. Decade? He has been a con-man for over *_40_* years, starting in the early years of 1970’s. He and his father were being chased by the Department of Justice back in *_Nixon’s Administration_* .
