US President-elect scoops up award
US President-elect Donald Trump has been named Time Magazineโs person of the year.
Trumpโs first appearance on Time was in 1989. Since then, heโs been on magazineโs cover 10 times.
โSo which is it this year: Better or worse? The challenge for Donald Trump is how profoundly the country disagrees about the answer,โ Time managing editor Nancy Gibbs wrote in a magazine essay.
โFor reminding America that demagoguery feeds on despair and that truth is only as powerful as the trust in those who speak it, for empowering a hidden electorate by mainstreaming its furies and live-streaming its fears, and for framing tomorrowโs political culture by demolishing yesterdayโs, Donald Trump is Timeโs 2016 Person of the Year,โ Gibbs wrote.
