Donald Trump: TIME'S Person of Year

#71

Quote:Yeah, like I said before, I'm aware there have been presidents and popes and Ghandis and Groves on the cover of Time.

 

Donald's not there because he's like Obama or Bill.  He's there for his nationalist populist "movement", and the parallels to 1933 Germany are there.  The US isn't in nearly as bad shape, and Donald's not nearly as much the psychopath.  But Donald's the president because of slim victories in depressed areas of the country where just enough believed his hollow promises to restore "greatness" to an already great nation, while blaming outsiders such as Muslims, Mexicans, and the Chinese for stealing our majesty, blaming the "dishonest media" the entire time for calling him out on these bigotries.

 

I'm hardly the only one to notice, and I'm concerned.  Perhaps you should be too.
 

So, you say he was likely put in there because of the similarities to 1933 Germany but say that the comparisons to Hitler were incidental? 

 

Of course they weren't going to put them into the same pose and setting, but after what you said, is it hard to believe that they didn't imitate Hitler's picture in Trump's?
