PERSON OF THE YEAR 2024

Courtroom speed bumps. Impeachment? Old news. Age? Merely a number. Nothing could stump Trump. MAGAnimous victory makes Capitol Hill Trump’s Red property.

A Lone Musk(eteer) stole the show. Now poised to bull-DOGE government inefficiency with a sharp axe. Trumpian tower’s cabinet is a republic of billionaires and hawks. Bye-bye Multilateralism, Buy-buy Mercantilism.

History rhymes. In 1924, Immigration Act imposed immigration quotas while the Revenue Act cut taxes. A slew of acts that decade upheld high protectionist tariffs to boost domestic industry. Sounds familiar in Trump’s ‘America First’? They risk economic isolation, societal division and reduced global influence - lessons history repeatedly warned against.

Biden, Kamala and company delivered decent: Infrastructure, growth, jobs and a mega stock market rally. But couldn’t construct a MAGA-grade narrative.

In a world where the poor get handouts, the rich ride market booms and get bailouts, while the middle class is left out, its frustration is finding a voice.

Yes, what kept us captivated in 2024 is the dance of democracy. Elections everywhere. Almost. Leftleaning promises, right-wing resurgence, centrist bargains, and everything in between. No matter where you stand, people’s voice remains the most unpredictable political force.

PM Ishiba gambled with early elections leading to LDP losing. President Yoon was impeached after a fleeting flirtation with martial law. In politics, as in life, some gambles are best left unplayed.

Argentina, a serial defaulter, delivered a historic fiscal surplus under Javier Milei. Claudia Sheinbaum smashed Mexico’s glass ceiling. Prabowo swept Indonesia. The Tories got torn, Starmer’s labor stormed Downing Street. The UK hopes Rachel can Revive (pun intended) the economy. The French PM’s office borrows a revolving door.
