So I think we should refrain from naming the US president Person of the Year multiple times (I know there is precedent). But trump would probably be the PotY every single year he's president with how relevant he is. We need to think beyond that easy choice. I think of these options, I only see 3 worthy picks.
Jeff Bezos I guess, but I feel like there are more grave issues in 2017 than Amazon.
The Dreamers I feel like The Dreamers haven't even been the top story in immigration this year.
Patty Jenkins I had to look up who she was....
Kim Jong Un Nothing has really changed.
Colin Kaepernick While he started the kneeling movement, I feel like the greater movement really had little to do with him. #MeToo Idk about "#MeToo", but I think the sexual assault awareness movement has defined our society and culture in 2017.
Robert Muller Not his year, but its looking good for him next year.
Mohammed bin Salman Big global player, but I feel like his impact won't be felt much outside of Arabia
Donald Trump See above Xi Jinping Possibly, but Time would really have to do a good job explaining how what Xi is doing in China will affect the rest of us.
