See the shortlist for TIME's Person of the Year 2024: https://t.co/SzNi7g5aJn — TIME (@TIME) December 9, 2024 From TIME: In a stunning political comeback, Donald Trump won the 2024 election. He has reshaped the American electorate, activating young male voters who propelled him to a decisive victory that saw him win the popular vote for the first time and turn every swing state red. Trump’s remarkable victory comes after he lost the 2020 election to Biden and repeatedly refused to accept the results. His 2024 win is history-making in multiple ways: he will be the oldest President in U.S. history, and he was convicted earlier this year by a New York jury of 34 counts of fraud, making him the first convicted felon to be elected President. During his 2024 campaign, he identified the economy and the border as his top priorities. He’s promised to implement tariffs on America’s top trading partners—Mexico, Canada, and China—once he takes office, worrying economists, and has announced several controversial Cabinet appointments. Trump was previously named TIME’s Person of the Year in 2016, the year he won the presidency for the first time. “TIME Magazine is considering naming Vice President Kamala Harris as TIME’s Person of the Year. Some of Harris’ accomplishments in 2024 include becoming the Dem candidate with no votes and losing the 2024 election while spending $1.5B,” Collin Rugg wrote.

Taylor Swift, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and Musk have won in recent years. Trump was named Time’s Person of the Year in 2016 after beating Hillary Clinton in the election. In Times’ shortlist description, Trump has “reshaped the American electorate” in a “stunning” political comeback. Rogan and Musk both endorsed Trump for president ahead of the election. Musk was also called to helm the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) alongside Vivek Ramaswamy. In 2021, Musk was also listed as the TIME Person of the Year. Time noted in its shortlist that Rogan’s podcast, “The Joe Rogan Experience,” was the top podcast on Spotify for the fifth year in a row. Rogan spoke to Trump on his podcast for three hours, which has since racked up over 52 million views on YouTube. Rogan also made headlines for trying to speak to Harris while she was on the campaign trail, though ultimately, her appearance fell through. During a post-election interview, Harris’ campaign staffers pointed to Trump’s 3-hour sit-down with Rogan as to why Harris was unable to have an interview with the podcaster. WATCH:
