        This is how it’s always been done. You can disagree with that policy, but in that context there’s nothing untoward going on here.

        And yes, Trump will certainly change the course of the United States, in huge ways. Surely you agree with that?

          The problem is that Trump, and his believers, will see this as praise and affirmation on how he’s the best. Now if Time made 2 categories, worst and best person of the year, things would be seen in a different perspective.
