The Daily Show Reacts to Trump Being Declared Time’s Person of the Year


Donald Trump has, likely unsurprisingly, been designated *Time* magazine’s “Person of the Year” for a second occasion, and *The Daily Show* wasted no time in sharing its thoughts on the news.

“This morning, the editor of *Time* magazine appeared on television to announce this year’s person of the year, and as soon as you see the editor’s expression, you immediately understand it’s Donald Trump,” joked host Michael Kosta. He then showed a clip of *Time* editor Sam Jacobs, who looked anything but excited while making the announcement.

“‘I’m really thrilled to be here, please don’t be upset, but it’s the individual we had to choose,'” Kosta humorously imitated Jacobs’ uninspired tone. “That’s the most lackluster reveal I’ve ever witnessed. That’s precisely how I feel when my sister gifts me scented lotion for Christmas. ‘Alright, there it is.'”
