Time magazine is set to name Donald Trump as its 'Person of the Year' for the second time.
This announcement, scheduled for Thursday, November 12, recognizes individuals or groups who have wielded significant influence on global affairs, "for good or for ill."
Trump first received this accolade in 2016 following his unexpected rise to the presidency. His selection this year marks a remarkable political resurgence, with potential implications for modern American politics.
A source familiar with the matter revealed that Trump will commemorate the occasion by ringing the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange during the unveiling of the magazine cover.
The title of 'Person of the Year' is a cultural touchstone, symbolizing mainstream success and recognition—an aspiration Trump has pursued throughout his career.
Despite controversies surrounding his worthiness, Trump's impact remains undeniable, reflecting the award's core purpose. As one observer noted, "Whether you agree with his methods or not, Trump's influence on global affairs is significant."
