Wonder if Trump will get a shot at being Pravda's Man of the Year?

Was he afraid of being a loser? Or is he just getting tired of so much winning?

(15,077 posts)fucked up he has to be to have done something like that.
He's like a flea, floating down the river on his back with an erection, yelling "Open the drawbridge." But in Trump's case, a malicious flea with power.

(12,448 posts)He's always bragging about how many times he was on the cover. And then there's the framed fake one hanging in some of his hotels.
Time doesn't "offer" their Person of the Year; it's not something that can be accepted or turned down, like an Oscar. It's not necessarily given to good people, just to people who've made an impact. But Dump thinks it's an honor, even though Hitler made it once. Although maybe he thinks Time was honoring Hitler's "accomplishments."
