Time Magazine ruffled some snowflake feathers before Donald Trump’s second inauguration with the release of their new cover – which depicts him taking a seat in the Oval Office with the title “He’s Back.” The president can also be seen knocking Joe Biden’s signature Aviator sunglasses and a stack of papers off the Resolute Desk.
That’s right. He is so back. America is back. It’s like a breath of fresh air knowing Trump will be sworn in tomorrow.

Trending Politics reports:
The new cover is a callback to the magazine’s cover from January 2017, which featured the newly-inaugurated President Trump sitting at the desk with his hands folded while a storm rages inside and outside the Oval Office.
Both covers attempt to cast a negative image of the president-elect, particularly the 2017 issue, which was meant to convey his first term as chaotic and disorganized. This time around, Trump appears more experienced and eager to get off to a fast start. The storm outside suggests that the magazine has not yet deviated from the gloomy, dark coverage of the Trump Administration that has plagued mainstream media outlets over the past decade.
They may have intended for the cover to portray in a negative light, but all they efforts did was backfire. Because we don’t see him as some ominous figure! We see the moment we have voted for, where Trump wipes Biden off every square inch of that Oval Office and puts America first again.
