Same reason Trump was on it during his presidency iirc. Quoting them:

TIME has a long history of featuring presidents on the cover and Trump, whose presidency defied precedents and fractured norms, has been no exception. Eight of the top 10 people to appear most often on TIME’s cover are U.S. presidents.

Nixon, Reagan, and Bill Clinton have all been on more than Trump.
