BY JOHN BOWDEN - 11/25/17 09:10 AM EST
A former aide to President Obama ripped President Trump on Saturday after Trump tweeted that he turned down Time magazine's offer to be "Person of the Year" in 2017.
Former White House senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer said it was "sad" that Trump would be "so needy for approval" after the president tweeted that he had rejected Time's offer.

Pfeiffer's comments come after the magazine denied the president's claim that he was offered the coveted award for the second year in a row, but declined the offer.
Trump tweeted Friday that he didn't want to do the accompanying interview and photo shoot that comes with the "Person of the Year" distinction.

No amount of money, praise, accolades will finally find him peace
and contentment.
