I can hear the masses screaming to boycott Time Magazine now But this should inflate his ego a little bit more now.

This part in the article made me laugh....



Trump beat out 10 other finalists, including his Democratic rival, Hillary Clinton. TIME declared Clinton their runner-up, and she was also the top pick among TODAY viewers.


2nd place again for Killary....bet she is not amused

"Despite the magazine's frequent statements to the contrary, the designation is often regarded as an honor, and spoken of as an award or prize, simply based on many previous selections of admirable people. However, Time magazine points out that controversial figures such as Adolf Hitler (1938), Joseph Stalin (1939 and 1942), Nikita Khrushchev (1957) and Ayatollah Khomeini (1979) have also been granted the title for their impacts."



Just sayin'

It's cool and all, but don't like the small caption saying "Divided States of America"

That's pretty disrespectful in my eyes.
