NEW YORK - Time Magazine on Dec 12 named US President-elect Donald Trump its "Person of the Year," marking the second time he has won the accolade, in acknowledgement of the mogul's stunning political comeback.
Trump, who defeated Vice-President Kamala Harris in the Nov 5 election, adorns the magazine's title cover, sporting his distinctive red tie and striking a pensive pose.
"For marshalling a comeback of historic proportions, for driving a once-in-a-generation political realignment, for reshaping the American presidency and altering America's role in the world, Donald Trump is Time's 2024 Person of the Year," the magazine said in a statement.
2024 saw Trump convicted on charges of business fraud and nearly assassinated twice - and will end with him preparing to return to the White House with Republican majorities in both chambers of Congress.
