On Wednesday, TIME magazine announced the 2015 Person of the Year is German Chancellor Angela Merkel.

Donald Trump, who was on the short list of candidates, did not take the news well.

He shared his disappointment and outrage on Twitter in numerous posts.


One read, "I told you @TIME Magazine would never pick me as person of the year despite being the big favorite They picked person who is ruining Germany."

Nancy Gibbs, the managing editor of TIME, told NBC's Today, "All year long he has been saying things that were counted as disqualifying — I've lost count how many times."

She also said, "If he thinks he deserves it, he has the whole next year to let the voters decide that."
