Time Magazine has named America’s President-elect, Donald Trump, as the 2016 Person of the Year.
In specific words on the cover edition, Time says “The 2016 Person of the Year is Donald Trump, the President of the divided states of America”
According to Nancy Gibbs of Time Magazine,
This is the 90th time we have named the person who had the greatest influence, for better or worse, on the events of the year. So which is it this year: Better or worse? The challenge for Donald Trump is how profoundly the country disagrees about the answer.
It’s hard to measure the scale of his disruption. This real estate baron and casino owner turned reality-TV star and provocateur—never a day spent in public office, never a debt owed to any interest besides his own—now surveys the smoking ruin of a vast political edifice that once housed parties, pundits, donors, pollsters, all those who did not see him coming or take him seriously. Out of this reckoning, Trump is poised to preside, for better or worse.
However there has been not-very-good reactions from Twitter users to this news. Here are some of the reactions:
