Donald Trump’s Time magazine ‘person of the year’ rant – 12 funniest responses online
Donald Trump told Twitter that Time magazine had called to offer him person of the year but, you know, he took a pass this time.
Time Magazine called to say that I was PROBABLY going to be named “Man (Person) of the Year,” like last year, but I would have to agree to an interview and a major photo shoot. I said probably is no good and took a pass. Thanks anyway!

Now this is complete bollocks, by all accounts. Here’s what Time magazine had to say about it.
The President is incorrect about how we choose Person of the Year. TIME does not comment on our choice until publication, which is December 6.

I don’t know who’ll be Time’s 2017 Person of the Year, but I must say it would be nice if Robert Mueller turns out to be Time’s 2018 Person of the Year.
