Time Magazine Owner Says Trump’s Presidency ‘Marks a Time of Great Promise’ for America: ‘We Look Forward to Working Together’

As a film enthusiast with a keen interest in politics and a deep respect for history, I find the recent events surrounding Time Magazine‘s Person of the Year choice intriguing. Having lived through the tumultuous years of the 2010s, I can’t help but feel a sense of deja vu as Donald Trump reclaims the title from Taylor Swift in 2024, following his second presidential victory over Kamala Harris.

In 2024, Donald Trump was chosen as Time Magazine’s Person of the Year, an honor that came with a flattering endorsement from Marc Benioff, who has owned the magazine since 2018. Notably, Benioff is also the co-founder, chairperson, and CEO of Salesforce.

Kudos to President Trump, chosen as TIME’s Person of the Year 2024! This is an exciting period for our country. We eagerly anticipate collaborating with him to foster American progress and shared prosperity. May God bless the USA!

Benioff posted a video showing Trump rejoicing at being honored by Time magazine at the New York Stock Exchange, and also shared a message from Ivanka Trump that read: “Delighted to mark an exceptional achievement with my father as he signaled the start of trading on the NYSE, standing in front of his TIME Magazine’s Person of the Year cover.

2023 saw music legend Taylor Swift being honored as the ‘Person of the Year’ by a magazine. However, this recognition was replaced in 2024 by Donald Trump, who won the presidential election against Kamala Harris that year. His second term will officially begin on January 20th, 2025. In his feature for Time magazine, Trump reiterated his intention to grant pardons to individuals implicated in the January 6th, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

Trump stated that he will carefully examine each case individually, and he intends to address them swiftly as soon as he takes office. He emphasized that a large number of these cases should not result in incarceration, as those involved have already suffered greatly.
