Quote:Time has put the "M" horns on all sorts of portraits. They want to have a full face on the cover, and they can't put the magazine title across the forehead.


As for the chair and shadow, Donald posed for the portrait, so he can't say he didn't see it coming. The 1938 Hitler cover was a painting, not a photo, and the pose was completely different. They both have dumb haircuts on their covers, though.


Anyway, <a class="bbc_url" href='http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/12/08/are_those_devil_horns_on_trump_s_head_on_his_time_person_of_the_year_photo.html'>this article</a> addresses your concerns. Apparently, Donald's biggest gripe about the cover was the "Divided States of America" subtitle. Amazingly, he still can't figure out that a little more than half the country hates him.
