Time Magazine ’s latest cover hails Donald Trump ’s “triumph” in brokering peace between Israel and Hamas , but the US president isn’t exactly celebrating.
Trump criticised Time Magazine early Tuesday for using the worst photo “of All Time” for a cover story about “his triumph” getting the Israeli hostages freed by Hamas.
“They ‘disappeared’ my hair, and then had something floating on top of my head that looked like a floating crown, but an extremely small one. Really weird!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.
“I never liked taking pictures from underneath angles, but this is a super bad picture, and deserves to be called out,” he added. The president suggested the magazine deliberately selected the unflattering photo for the profile praising his historic efforts to gain peace between Israel and Hamas. “What are they doing, and why?” he asked.
The unflattering cover came after 20 living hostages were finally freed Monday, more than two years after Hamas’ October 7-2023 attack. In return, Israel released some 2,000 Palestinian prisoners and the remains of about 360 Palestinians, officials said.
Time reported on X that "The living Israeli hostages held in Gaza have been freed under the first phase of Donald Trump's peace plan, alongside a Palestinian prisoner release." The magazine shared a link to its story titled ‘How the Trump Administration Sealed the Gaza Ceasefire Deal’.
The cover of the latest Time Magazine carried a picture of Trump with the words: "His Triumph."
