Times Person of the Year Predictions

it's that time of year again. who do you think it will be?

My guesses:

  • Trump (obv choice)
  • Mueller (also possible, not sure tho)
  • Women (times does this sometimes and gives it to a group, totally conceivable they do something stupid like "the year of the women" or something completely retarded)

I can't really think of other people that have hugely impacted the news. If you want to correctly predict, it needs to be someone that's been in the news a lot and someone the times will want to circlejerk over (either negatively or positively)

I'm betting on Occasional-Cortex.
 
I would say, Jamal Khashoggi?

To Troll: Do not assume I am on Trump’s side because I have no use for the press:


If Americans want to protect the First Amendment start by eliminating these four words ——“or of the press” —— so that it reads:
​


First Amendment
​
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
​


Notice that the press would still enjoy freedom of speech like the rest of us, but they would have to defend freedom of speech as a matter of self-interest instead of only defending their constitutional privilege while they feed the rest us to Socialist/Communist wolves.

The first two I'd say no. Time rarely honors the same person two years in a row. Mueller is sooooo 2016. So...no there too.

Since they pissed off the left with Trump last year my guess is that Kap will win the award this year to piss off the right. Now your #3 bet is probably your best bet. I have "#me too" as my number 2 bet.

My bets are;

#1. Emmanuel Macron
#2. The #Me Too movement
#3. Kap

He's still a fucking turtle and has the charm and charisma of one. No way is it McConnell.

You sounded good till you ran off the rails there at the end with the Red Scare rant about commies. You just want the press to defend rightwing ideals?

To Troll: Read my response again. Freedom of speech defends everyone’s ideals; whereas, the press only defended the Left’s ideals since the 1920s.
