President-elect Donald Trump rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange yesterday morning, not long after Time magazine announced that it has selected him as its 2024 Person of the Year. This is the second time he has been so-named; he was also chosen in 2016 after winning the White House the first time.
The first person to receive this honor was Charles Lindbergh in 1927. In those days, the magazine called the award “Man of the Year.”
Every serving president of the United States has been Man or Person of the Year at least once, with the exceptions of Calvin Coolidge (in office at the time of the first issue), Herbert Hoover (the subsequent president), and Gerald Ford (the only president never elected to that office or vice president).
Would you have chosen Mr. Trump this year? Of course, you didn’t get a vote. It’s that way with nearly every dimension of your life: you are living with the consequences of decisions you didn’t make. More Here
