Lots of people are making the same comment about Donald Trump’s TIME Magazine cover

Homenews

Donald Trump has been crowned TIME Magazine's Person of the Year, beating off competition from Nigel Farage, Mark Zuckerberg and Tayyip Erdogan among others.

Previous POTY alumni include, in no particular order: Mahatma Gandhi, Winston Churchill, John F. Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr, Pope John Paul II, Mikhail Gorbachev, and Queen Elizabeth II. According to TIME, the POTY is awarded to “the person or persons who most affected the news and our lives, for good or ill, and embodied what was important about the year.” Trump has certainly affected the news in a big and mixed way for huge amounts of people as he won the election and became President-elect of the United States. In TIME's explanation of their choice, they wrote:
"For those who believe [Trump's triumph] is all for the better, Trump’s victory represents a long-overdue rebuke to an entrenched and arrogant governing class; for those who see it as for the worse, the destruction extends to cherished norms of civility and discourse, a politics poisoned by vile streams of racism, sexism, nativism."
But on the cover of the magazine, many are pointing out the same thing about Trump's picture and the placement of the TIME logo. https://twitter.com/RexHuppke/status/806508693508554752 https://twitter.com/EmmaQuinlan/status/806523113949331457 https://twitter.com/JeremyMcLellan/status/806510973259567104 https://twitter.com/mark_herrmann/status/806602911111376897 https://twitter.com/JohnRiversX4/status/806594322128928768 https://twitter.com/GhantaGuy/status/806488120535367681 https://twitter.com/DonnCualinge/status/806592284451966976?lang=en Catch up with the latest episode of Football Friday Live:
