Well, it is official. Donald Trump is TIME’s ‘Person of the Year,’ and Twitter does not seem to understand how this happened. Some are not that surprised, but many people — and we could almost set out watch by this one — are dropping in the Hitler comparison:

Not surprised Donald Trump is TIME’s Person of the Year. They given that title to other dictators like Hitler, Stalin, and Taylor Swift. 😔

I don’t want to argue with Time Magazine, but I feel like calling Donald Trump a “person” is a bit of a stretch.

Me: “They’ve picked evil trash before.”
Ex: “Who?”

Always remember: Trump received 2.7 mil fewer votes, it is patriotic to oppose his dangerous agenda, and we will never let them define us.

What’re the chances we make it out of 2016 without Keith Olbermann doing the Mr. Grinch song and saying ‘Trump’ instead

Some do not seem surprised at all, while others are having a very hard timing dealing with not only the fact that Trump will be our next President, but he is also TIME’s ‘Person of the Year.’
