        It really is, though. They were going to put Bin Laden as person of the year after 9/11, and only decided against it because they were concerned about the safety of their writers from people who don’t understand that it’s not an endorsement.

        This is how it’s always been done. You can disagree with that policy, but in that context there’s nothing untoward going on here.

        And yes, Trump will certainly change the course of the United States, in huge ways. Surely you agree with that?
