I think if you were writing a movie about the comeback of Donald Trump, and you tried to sell it, people probably would have told you that they wouldn’t buy it because no one would believe it. But it happened, with him ultimately winning in triumph despite all the efforts against him, including impeachments, convictions, and assassination attempts.
Trump rang the morning bell at the New York Stock Exchange Thursday morning, a precursor to ringing in a new age in Washington and the country come January.

The Time magazine cover was actually a good picture, making him look lean, powerful, and ready. For once, it didn’t appear to have an anti-Trump bias, another sign of how much he’s won.

While there were other people on the shortlist for Person of the Year who certainly contributed to the victory or made an impact, like Elon Musk, no one commanded the year as much as Trump, and he was truly reveling in the victory at the NYSE.
Meanwhile, the cherry on the top was how mad the left was over it. Former CNN stooge Don Lemon was just beside himself, unable to understand how Time could have done this.

“If they wanted to make him person of the year…they could have done it with any person,” Lemon whined, clearly not understanding the purpose of the choice. “Just because you are elected President of the United States doesn’t mean you should be elected Person of the Year! Time Magazine, what are you doing?”
He then went off on some rant about what they would say to the women who have to deal “with issues women have to deal with.” Um, I’d say a lot of smart women just got jobs in the Trump administration?
Lemon ranted about Trump being a “convicted felon” and said maybe this all wasn’t real, and someone must have put out a fake tweet. Nope, Don — it’s real, and it’s delicious, and all you guys are going to have to deal with it or continue to throw fits for the next four years.
But you know the fit that some were having? Even Hitler was named “Person of the Year” (back when it was “Man of the Year”), according to Democratic strategist Adam Parkhomenko.

They still don’t get why they lost or how the American voters just completely rejected these kinds of attacks.
Does that mean that Taylor Swift is now Hitler too? She won last year.

And what about the rest of us, including Adam? “You” won in in 2006. So are we all Hitler too?
But, what does it mean? https://t.co/LZUqOTjbU4 pic.twitter.com/4Cq1bR1Bfv

They just keep dealing from the same playbook. People are tired of it and laughing at them.
We’re going to have a fun four years.
