Co-host Joy Behar expressed that Time Magazine had selected President-elect Donald Trump as their Person of the Year, and he celebrated by ringing the bell at the New York Stock Exchange. Sara Haines commented that while Trump has showcased talent for bluster and hype, his initial campaign promise of building a wall paid for by Mexico did not materialize.

Ana Navarro responded by stating her relief that this was an authentic Time Magazine cover, as Trump had previously shared fake ones at his country clubs. She highlighted that the honor has been bestowed upon controversial figures like Josef Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Khrushchev, and Khomeini, placing Trump in similar company.

“Look for me. I was like, okay, at least this is a real Time Magazine cover. Because you remember he used to keep sharing a fake. Yes. He used to keep a fake Time Magazine cover with the fake ones that he used to keep in his in his country clubs. And also just so you know, it’s not always been great people that have been on the cover of Time. Right. It’s been people like Josef Stalin and Adolf Hitler and Khrushchev and Khomeini, so he’s in that kind of company as well.”
