even to the point of lying his prodigious white buttocks off to get his dupes to believe he was being considered this year to be on Time's cover.
He wasn't.
He lied.
Surprise!
He's a national disgrace and a pathetic narcissist.
From PM Carpenter's Carpentariat:
Time magazine and our 'Liar of the Decade'
"[Trump's] vain obsession with Time's cover is legend — and typically Trumpian.
In 2012, he tweeted that the magazine had "lost all credibility when they didn't include me in their Top 100…"; four years later, upon being named by the discredited magazine as Person of the Year, he told NBC News that it "means a lot … it's a very important magazine … I consider this a very, very great honor."
Indeed it's such an honor in Trump's pathological narcissism that, in the honor's absence, he simply invents it.
There was no call from Time, there was no "probability" of Trump's being named Person of the Year, there was no requested accompanying interview and photo shoot, there was no presidential "pass."
The magazine made all this clear in a pair of stupefied tweets. "The President is incorrect about how we choose Person of the Year. TIME does not comment on our choice until publication, which is December 6"; and 45 minutes later, from Time Inc.'s chief content officer, came this:
"Amazing. Not a speck of truth here — Trump tweets he 'took a pass' at being named TIME's person of the year." Not a speck of truth.
Now let's look at a real president's time on the cover of TIME:
(Trump is hilariously and insanely jealous of all things having to do with President Obama and the national pride we Americans have in him. Trump wil never, never, never approach being the decent, intelligent man that President Obama is. That is the source of Trump's childish envy of the man he'll never be.)
Yesterday, you claimed TIME Magazine called you to inform you that you were being considered for Person of the Year for the December 6th issue. Unfortunately, that turned out to be a LIE. Both TIME’s content editor and Time Magazine have tweeted that your claim is false.
.
And of course, your dashing face adorns that splendid March 1st 2009 cover of TIME Magazine that hangs in five of your golf resorts, from Scotland to Mar-a-Lago. Unfortunately, that too turned out to be a LIE. The cover was Photoshopped.
.
And who can forget the time you told your adoring throngs “I’ve been on the cover of TIME Magazine more than anybody else.” Guess what? Another LIE.
.
So what is it Donald? Why the obsession for getting on the cover of TIME Magazine? It almost seems like you’re trying to compete with someone that you’re insanely jealous of.

It has gotten to the point where my first assumption is that anything that Trump says is a lie. And if you don’t believe the person at the top, how can you believe anybody below him?
There are recent indications that Mueller may have flipped Flynn.
With luck we won't have to deal with this village idiot much longer.
Jerry and Ducky
President Bone Spur made a fool of himself when he tweeted out his lie about TIME magazine's Person of the Year, and then he doubled down on being a fool when he whined about CNN International, saying it isn't a good representative of America.
CNNI hit the Fool-in-Chief with a truth punch between the eyes when it tweeted back,
It's not CNN's job to represent the U.S. to the world. That's yours. Our job is to report the news."
CNN and TIME 2 --- TRUMP 0
Is the Mother Ship still hoping #45 will start acting dignified? LOL!
BTW, I heard a rumor that it may be Colin Kaepernick as TIME's Person of the Year.
That would be so sweeeeeeeet! Crossing my fingers!
Trump is a narcissist and sociopath. We know this. Trump has shown himself to be (by his words) both a misogynist and sexual predator. We know this. Trump has shown America he is a prolific liar. We know this as well. But, obviously none of this registers (or matters) with the Trumpanzees.
In short, given the extreme ideological differences between right and left, all of the above is really just preaching to the choir.
How come you never wrote those things about President ASSHOLE OBAMY?
RN USA
And the choir takes the cue, launching into a rousing mashup of This Land Is Your Land and I'd like to Teach the World to Sing.
We are the choir, yes we are and it's our job to get the blood moving, the eyes to sparkle, and the lips to smile.
Hallelujah! Love will win.
To the troll Dingleberries:
Those things were never written about President Obama because President Obama was a grown-up man with intelligence and dignity. You and your ilk voted for a national embarrassment, a man-child with neither intelligence nor dignity. That's why. And I'm not surprised you don't understand that.
Also, Dingleberries, this NEVER happened while President Obaa was POTUS:
U.S. Image Suffers as Publics Around World Question Trump’s Leadership
America still wins praise for its people, culture and civil liberties
Making America Grate Again
Trump's rise triggers a collapse in global confidence in the U.S. presidency, according to a new poll.
World leaders conclude: Trump is a liability, not a leader
People around the world don't like or trust Trump. Here's why that matters.
Free Dingleberries, probably because while those things are true to a small and controlled degree in ALL presidents they are egregious and uncontrolled in Trump.
If Obama is an asshole then Trump is an elephant size asshole. And one w/out a modicum of integrity or decency.
Hope that helps ya Free Dingleberries.
RN, What Dingleberries misses the point on (no surprise), is that President Obama wasn't a tweeting embarrassment to America and hinself the way trump is. Every tweet makes Trump a bigger fool than his last one. Dingleberries doesn't understand that I didn't write about "those things" because President Obama didn't DO "those things."
Grey on talks sass - Just beware the backlash. Know, or learn the limits of tolerance. Moderates and even many rational liberals have a tolerance level at which they begin to pull back.
Beware the danger of shooting your cause in the foot, AGAIN.
I don't understand how exposing Trump's every stupid tweet and lie can be dangerous for the anti-Trumpers.
Thoughtful conservatives are not shy in pointing to how mendacious and stupid his tweets are. Trump enjoys the support of only 30% of the VOTING public, a minority. He does NOT have the support of a majority of the American people.
My belief is that we need to keep exposing Trump's outrageous behavior, lack of knowledge of national and foreign policies and the Constitution, and his pathological lying (evident again this weekend in his lying about TIME magazine.) I've also read that privately, Trump is now saying the Access Hollywood tape is fake.
We have to remind Americans that Trump himself acknowledged the tape and said it was just "locker room" talk that he and Bush engaged in. Now he's about to say the tape is a fake because more and more people are coming forth and comparing his sexual predation to Roy Moore's.
Trump cannot be allowed to get away with his constant lying. That's why I will continue to hammer him every day.
He cannot become normal. Trump is an abberration on the American polity, and it is up to sane Americans: conservative, liberal, independent, libertarian, all, to make sure he's constantly exposed as the fraud and dangerous imbecile that he is.
RN - backlash on love?
I'm as liberal as they come and my tolerance only goes so far. So how exactly am I shooting my cause in the foot by spreading that word?
Did you pay attention to my mashup? I paired Woodie Guthrie and a well known representative of Corporate America knowing the two sides were not fond of each other.
Americans are alike in many ways. It's the differences that make us who we are.
"Trump cannot be allowed to get away with his constant lying. That's why I will continue to hammer him every day"
NO, NO, NO, THAT'S NOT WHY, THE REAL REASON IS BECAUSE YOU ARE SUCH A CRYBABY THAT YOU JUST CAN'T STAND LOSING. AND LOSING TO A NON POLITICAL MAN WHO BEAT THE HELL OUT OF YOUR CHEATING, LYING CROOKED CANDIDATE!
Ms Shaw
You should make you opinions known but keep in mind that DJT didn't win, -H- lost. A significant number of voters didn't vote for DJT they voted against -H-.
BHO had a number of outright lies but they were only reported on for a day or two. Did he lie, of course he did because he was a politician and that is what they do. The Time person of the year is a political card that Time uses to gain recognition. Remember they featured Khomeini as person of the year which drew outrage and loss of subscribers. They are just trying to remain relevant.
DJT is toxic and should resign. His support of Moore is a play to not lose another seat not a moral victory. If the accusations against Moore are correct, after 40 years something almost impossible to prove, he should step down. We have a hypercritical political system, Conyers and Franken are proven guilty yet they are given a pass, Moore is accused with no proof and he is castigated.
Why not support term limits and limit the damage these 535 elitists can do to the American people. The president has term limits, most Governors and mayors have term limits, why shouldn't congress?
Hey "Ray" make up your mind. You've posted here as "Free Dingleberries," and now you're "Ray?"
You got a problem with who you really are? Like the sexual predator president you support?
Also, ALL CAPS "Ray," here your daily reminder:
Hillary Clinton is NOT under FBI investigation and Donald "The Pu$$y-Grabber" Trump, his administration, and family are.
You're welcome. And have a nice day.
skudrunner,
Trump won the electoral college; Hillary won the popular vote. More Americans voted for her against him. So your first sentence is not correct.
President Obama made incorrect statements, but I'm not sure he was a deliberate, bald-faced liar like Trump is. His recent Tweet this weekend about TIME was immediately exposed as a lie by TIME, Inc.'s executives. President Obama never engaged in what Trump did: A five-year campaign to deliberately smear Mr. Obama and insinuate, without a shred of evidence, that Mr. Obama was not a legitimate president because Trump claimed his birth certificate was fake.
Trump, as you and everyone knows, lied through his ugly teeth. He never sent "his people," as he lied again, to Hawaii where they were "finding out amazing things." Trump is essentially a bullshitter. He actually doesn't care when his bullshit lies are exposed for what they are. He counts on his supporters to dismiss his lies as "Trump just being Trump." But that's what makes him such a danger to our country.
BTW, Conyer is stepping down, according to the latest reports. And I'm guess so will Franken. Moore, however, will be elected.
You dismiss the credible accounts of all the women who've accused him? I bet you believe all the accounts of the women who've accused Bill Clinton of his sexual predations, eh? You can't have it both ways, my friend. If you dismiss Moore's and Trump's accusers of sexual crimes, then you have to do the same with Clinton's. He was never convicted. Remember? Just accused by many women. Like Trump and Moore.
PS. I've always supported term limits. Trouble is, Congress makes and passes laws. They won't do that to themselves.
Since Trump is bringing up the Access Hollywood tape, perhaps we all should listen to it again. https://youtu.be/NcZcTnykYbw
When America keeps voting for "the lesser of two evils" as skudrunner essentially points out it eventually ends up with, Trump. A man with few principles or values and the the conservatives/libertarians keep covering for him.
Trump wants to be on the cover of TIME Magazine. He will be one day, with the headline, IMPEACHED!
Reminder: Hillary Clinton went to trial for alleged crimes exactly ZERO times. Crooked Donald has been party to some 4,000 lawsuits over the last 30 years and is currently facing 75 active lawsuits, according to analysis by USA Today newspaper.
Another reminder: Two times the Republicans cut taxes on very rich people to "create jobs". Both times America lost millions and millions of jobs. It doesn't work”
Donald Trump is a sexist pig but the people who support him will never face that indisputable fact:
Donald Trump, an American businessman and current President of the United States, has been accused of sexual assault and sexual harassment, including non-consensual kissing or groping, by at least fifteen women since the 1980s. Those accusations have resulted in three widely reported instances of litigation: his then-wife Ivana made a rape claim during their 1989 divorce litigation but later recanted that claim; businesswoman Jill Harth sued Trump in 1997 alleging breach of contract while also suing for nonviolent sexual harassment but withdrew the latter suit when the former was settled; and, in 2017, former Apprentice contestant Summer Zervos filed a defamation lawsuit after Trump called her a liar.
Trump and Moore and Clinton all call their accusers liars. Trump is in the same category as Bill Clinton. The religious right can put that where the sun don't shine. They have their own fat sexual pervert as president.

And trump is in the white house while Hillary Clinton is wandering around in the woods drinking from a bottle of Gray Goose.
Actually T.R.D., Trump is under investigation by the FBI. Hillary isn't. So there's no need for her to wander anywhere.
Trump has only a 30% approval rating, the lowest of any president in modern history. No one, except the 30 percenters respects him.
Trump has been accused of sexual predation by 16 women, probably more than Bill Clinton. So Trump is more of a pig than the righties' favorite sexual predator. Hilarious!
The more you pretend that Trump's presidency isn't a dumpster fire, the more you'll need that Gray Goose to anesthetize yourself from reality.
SAD!
Shaw,
If I remember BJC actually changed the meaning of IT because of a blue dress. Was he found guilty of non-consensual sex, no but somehow the sitting president of the US taking advantage of a young volunteer worker is sexual assault. His faithful wife and first lady attacked his victim and the clinton crime syndicate advanced his cause. Where was Gloria during all of this, oh thats right she was a clinton supporter?
-H- did win the popular vote but we don't elect a president based on the popular vote. She forgot there is another part of the country other than the coasts and it cost her the election. If you read polls the middle of the country still supports DJT by 50% so it looks like the coasts are swinging the national polls as they always do. Remember Pelosi and Madcow promising DJT will not win.
Also Conyers said he would step down from a committee he chairs not step down from his seat. Haven't heard about Franken yet. Maybe he can pay back the bribe money we paid to keep it quiet.
I agree with you that they would never vote in term limits just like they will never vote in a fair tax. Power is all that matters and the voters will not vote their conscience just their wallet.
Now who is next to be exposed??
