Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump made the shortlist for TIME magazine's 2015 Person of the Year for his "populist rhetoric" in the 2016 presidential election that has "stirred debate about the party's future."

The magazine released its shortlist Monday morning with Trump making the cut among other finalists including Black Lives Matter activists, Russian president Vladimir Putin and Abu Bakr Al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS).

I’d rather see him get it in 2017, when he actually has the power to do the things he is talking about doing. Not like Obama who got all these awards without doing anything.

“What an arrogant, self-aggrandizing jerk!”

Says the guy whose tag line is “Freepers: Not as smart as I’d hoped they’d be.”

I had heard on the radio (WMAL Wash. DC) that it was going to be Bernie Sanders..... haven't read Time magazine since we had to buy a subscription in 8th grade......

It’s show business, after all

LOL...some candidates do say a lot, just for show.

Trump gets right to the heart of — and brings to the forefront — important issues, like never before. The showboats compliment Trump by imitating him....more and more, each day ;-)

So, you do have a good point...about ‘show’ business.

I noticed you added the word ‘wealthy’ in to your Trump snipe....

Wealth envy, much?

Hey they gave Obama the Nobel Peace Prize before he even took office. Given the current state of the world now we know why.

I still keep hoping.

But hope is fading fast.

>> “he agrees that Trump’s policies are about as conservative as you can get.” <<

Not even close to true, but dream on.

Try posting a reference!

Is that your new “Conservative Treehouse” Logo?

Exactly. They can’t give it to Trump this year because if he wins the election next year, they’d have to give it to him again. I think they’d commit mass suicide first.

I think they’ll go with Black Lives Matter

[MeshugeMikey]

has anyone ever seen Billy and Robert in the same room together ..or mre Reich,,,and Johnny for that matter..?

[Personal Responsibility]

A couple years ago they named “The protester” the person of the year and last year it was “Ebola fighters” so...

It won’t be Trump because liberals believe his campaign is on the verge of collapse.

My guess is Caitlin.

[Califreak]

I feel like they’ll name the isis guy for the ultimate slap in the face to Christians all over the globe.

“It won’t be Trump because liberals believe his campaign is on the verge of collapse.”

liberals believe? ...but John Kasick has said with confidence Trump won’t be the nominee. ...oh wait, nevermind.

Hero worship much?

Sounds like you do.

Look, I like my Senator, too...but, I don’t think he’s worship worthy :)

I’ll support the ONE candidate who has business experience (actually has to cover a payroll for thousands), negotiates YUGE international contracts and is NOT owned by any open borders affiliated PACs/groups/donors.

We get you don’t like Trump, so why not take your hero worship and head back to your hero’s thread?

[RummyChick]

It probably should be ISIS. They are dramatically changing everything for the worse everywhere and no one is doing anything about it.

Wasn’t Hitler Man of The Year

What you don’t seem to get is that Trump and his backers (MSM) don’t like America as the founders made it.
