Time magazine person of the year 2024: Time magazine has named President-elect Donald Trump as its Person of the Year for 2024, marking his second recognition after 2016.
Time magazine has again recognised US President-elect Donald Trump as its Person of the Year for 2024, the second time.
Trump has been rewarded before in 2016. The statement was done on Thursday. Last year, the title was taking by pop star Taylor Swift for 2023.

Time has a past record in choosing people or groups of people “those who for better or for worse, did as much as anyone to change the world”. Nevertheless, it is not traditional for all presidents-elect and several have not obtained the title.

For example, instead of Eisenhower, it went to Queen Elizabeth II in 1952 and instead of Kennedy, the astronauts of Apollo 8, who history made by orbiting the moon in 1968, were selected than the president-elect Richard Nixon.

There is more: Trump once described ‘Time’ magazine’s Person of the Year as his ‘holy grail’. Many times, he became the magazine’s cover though quite often the portrayal was quite uncomplimentary.
The magazine Time is expected to announce its winner of the Person of the Year award soon thereafter and in 2015, when it chose German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Trump took offence at this publicly, irrespective of the fact that he frequently made recourse to the social media platform, Twitter, to express his unhappiness at this decision – he even mentioned this at one of his rallies. When he was ultimately selected in 2016 he said to the NBC Today Show , “It was a great honour.”

Who is the most powerful person in the world ?
Most powerful person in the world: TIME Editor-in-Chief Sam Jacobs explained exactly why Trump topped the chart: “For leading a comeback of the ages, for uniting a new coalition of forces that put a new face on the Republican party and recast the presidency for the ages, for disrupting the global order like no other world leader in the past half-century, Donald Trump is TIME’s 2024 Person of the Year.”
Without any qualms, he survived six corporate bankruptcies and multiple criminal cases and trounced Vice President Kamala Harris to get the mandate. Trump will now become the first convicted criminal to swear an oath to the presidency, the first to be impeached twice to return to the White House, and, at 78 years old, the first oldest person to be sworn in as president.
Harris, who would have been the first Black president, was among five finalists for Time’s recognition.
