POINT OF VIEW

It appears that President Trump doesn’t want to be Time magazine’s Person of the Year this year. Time has, in hindsight, occasionally got it wrong, with Haile Selassie, Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin and ru ho ll ah Khomeini being some of the titleholders who are no longer held in so positive a regard. This is probably not the peer group that most people would want to be a member of. DENNIS FITZGERALD
