Joe Rogan and Elon Musk were also considered finalists for the coveted Time magazine award"

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to be named Time magazine's 2024 "Person of the Year," marking the second time he will have earned the coveted award.

Politico reported on Wednesday that Trump plans to ring the opening bell of the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday morning to unveil his photo on the cover. News of Trump's selection was seemingly leaked, with the outlet citing three people who spoke anonymously because they were "not authorized" to do so.

A Time spokesperson told Fox News Digital, "TIME does not comment on its annual choice for Person of the Year prior to publication. This year’s choice will be announced tomorrow morning."

Trump was widely considered a finalist on Time magazine's Person of the Year shortlist, with podcast host Joe Rogan and Elon Musk also listed as top contenders. The Times shortlist description credited Trump for "reshaping the American electorate" in a "stunning" political comeback."

Vice President Kamala Harris was also included on the list, along with Kate Middleton, Russian economist Yulia Navalnaya, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum and Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

Every year, Time magazine names a person, group or concept that had the biggest impact on the world in the previous 12 months. Taylor Swift, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Musk have won in recent years.

Trump was named Time's Person of the Year in 2016 after beating Hillary Clinton in the election. At the time, he hailed the award as "a great honor" and one that "means a lot."

Let's give a big round of applause to our soon to be 47th President of the U.S for the Greater of America too in Donald J. Trump

Per Wikipedia: Person of the Year (called Man of the Year or Woman of the Year until 1999) is an annual issue of the American news magazine and website Time featuring a person, group, idea, or object that "for better or for worse ... has done the most to influence the events of the year".

Since Time Magazine started naming this Man, Woman and, ultimately, Person of the year in 1927 every U.S. president except, Coolidge, Hoover and Gerald Ford have been named Man of the Year.

So was Hitler. So was Stalin. So was Khrushchev. So was Putin. So was Ayatollah Khomeini.

To call it a, "coveted award," is a bit of a stretch. It does not necessarily mean the recipient has accomplished some great achievement that benefits all mankind.

The man had 2 attempts on his life, endured bullshit after bullshit trials one day to the next AND while campaigning for President of the U.S and probably sleeps at best 4 hours a day. He's pretty much doing the job now as President because Biden basically gave up and handed the reigns off to him and he should

I was thinking of that today. One president at a time and it's not Biden.
