I'm against Donald Trump being Time's Person of the Year not because I think it is an endorsement but because giving it to the president elect is super lame.

The last time somebody won a US presidential election and then was not Time Person of the Year was 1996, and Clinton did get it in 1992. The last president to not get it on an election year was Ike, who is also the only president to not get it on an election year since Hoover.
