The left’s reaction to Donald Trump being named Time Magazine’s ‘Person of the Year’ provides an everlasting source of amusement. It seems that if one were to script a movie detailing Trump’s incredible political resurgence, Hollywood wouldn’t even entertain the idea—yet here we are, witnessing the ultimate plot twist. Despite impeachments, legal battles, and even threats against his life, Trump has staged a comeback that seems almost cinematic, ringing in a new chapter for the nation as he celebrated at the New York Stock Exchange.
Time’s choice for their cover art was surprisingly flattering, casting Trump in a powerful light, showcasing him in a lean and commanding pose. The magazine, typically known for its liberal biases, seems to have inadvertently acknowledged Trump’s undeniable impact on the year, signaling a shift in the narrative. While others were included on the shortlist, such as tech giants like Elon Musk, none have matched Trump’s commanding presence in American politics.

The left’s dissatisfaction with this recognition, however, adds an amusing layer to the whole affair. The chaos erupted as former CNN anchor Don Lemon expressed disbelief that Time would dare honor a man like Trump. His frustration seemed to stem from a lack of understanding regarding the significance of the award itself, lamenting that simply holding the presidency shouldn’t qualify one for such an honor. One can’t help but notice that Lemon’s assertion misses the point: the very position Trump held speaks volumes about his impact on the country and the world.
Lemon’s incredulous rants included referencing Trump’s legal troubles—an argument that has been exhausted time and again. But in the world of entertainment, whether in politics or any other realm, a character’s legal issues don’t always overshadow their contributions or accomplishments. Perhaps one should remind Lemon that many accomplished individuals also faced challenges, yet they prevail.
The most entertaining part of this whole debacle has been the comparisons made by the left-dominated media, including a ridiculous statement about how Trump’s selection might equate him with historical figures like Hitler. It raises the question: by that logic, does this mean that all those previously honored for the same award, like Taylor Swift the year prior, become comparable as well? This suggestion highlights the absurd lengths to which some will go to disparage Trump.
While the left continues to throw temper tantrums, the reality remains that they are out of touch with mainstream America, which has clearly moved on from their narratives. The country stands on the brink of an exciting future for Trump supporters, providing ample opportunity for laughter—and perhaps a little schadenfreude—as the liberal elite grapples with the results they never saw coming. The next four years promise to be nothing short of entertaining.
