‘Trans in Trumpland’ Documentary Debuts Trailer Ahead of February Release

A new trailer for the upcoming docuseries “Trans in Trumpland” opens with ominous music as Donald Trump is heard in voiceover saying, “I will do everything in my power to protect our LGBTQ citizens.”

There’s no question that Trump, who was impeached for a second time on Wednesday, did not fulfill his promise. In fact, LGBTQ activists rightfully argue that Trump used his power to roll back the rights and protections of trans Americans.

The trailer offers a glimpse into the life of a trans woman who was held at a men’s ICE detention center. Zosherafatain is also seen showing photos of himself at age 12 to a trans high schooler. “No matter what the President says about you, you exist,” Zosherafatain says. “You are human.”

As Variety first reported, “Transparent” actress Trace Lysette signed on as a producer of the doc in July. She executive produces alongside Chella Man and Miss Major Griffin-Gracy as well as Topic’s Ryan Chanatry and Jeff Seelbach.

I have a half brother “still want to see the DNA”, who announced that he is a woman on 12/7/2019.

Have not spoke to him since. He tried to send my children Christmas Presents, for the first time ever last year. I sent them back. They are a sick and demented group.

Yes. I think they really try to elevate themselves into some great cause. They’re almost all just cross-dressers. Why do they need any special rights? They’re just drama queens.

What “rights” are those? That some people don’t ignore the reality of biology? That violates your “rights”?

What is interesting is that the Left can’t keep its own nonsense straight - I thought it was a false stereotype that what defines a woman is to wear women’s clothes?

We are living in a new reality where everything is viewed through the prism of Donald J Trump. I got the wrong drive-through order, here is how Trump is to blame. Obsessed!!!

Worse, Trump did absolutely nothing to protect the rights of unicorns. I’m outraged!

Yes... You exist. You exist as a mentally ill person in a land that tries to convince you it is normal. It isn’t normal.
