The trailer for British documentarian Alex Holder’s Unprecedented has just hit the internet and… UUUGGGHHH.
The three-part docuseries, which hits Discovery+ later this summer, details the final days of Donald Trump‘s presidency, from his doomed 2020 presidential campaign to shortly after the deadly January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The two-and-a-half-minute trailer was obtained by Politico and doesn’t reveal too much except how much access Holder had to the Trump klan during the lead up to the insurrection, including sit-downs with Trump, Don Jr., Eric, Ivanka, and Jared.
Per Politico:
Ivanka frets about a line on her dress, and jokes about covering it with a pet roaming about. “Can I borrow your dog?” she asks her makeup artist. Kushner nervously repositions his tie and asks “Is that OK?” Don Jr., seen at a rally, screams, “We will make liberals cry again!” Eric is caught on a phone call, mysteriously saying, “For the sake of this country, we’re going to get these guys.”
The quick cuts are set to Vivaldi and interspersed with a series of text-only shots explaining the movie: “Witness the 3-part documentary event … With exclusive access … To the most controversial family in the world … Gaining power is easy … Surrendering it is not.”
It all builds to Jan. 6, when the Vivaldi suddenly stops and a wide shot of Trump at the “Stop the Steal” rally in Washington appears. “Let’s all walk down Pennsylvania Avenue,” he tells the crowd.
Then Holder’s cameraperson joined the crowd as it marched on the Capitol.
The House committee investigating January 6 obtained hours of footage from Holder, who testified before the panel behind closed doors on June 23.

In a statement last month, the documentarian said, “When we began this project in September 2020, we could have never predicted that our work would one day be subpoenaed by Congress.”

“As a British filmmaker, I had no agenda coming into this. We simply wanted to better understand who the Trumps were and what motivated them to hold onto power so desperately. We have dutifully handed over all the materials the Committee has asked for and we are fully cooperating.”
Watch.
Trump and his family have remained tight-lipped about the docuseries, though New York Times senior political correspondent Maggie Haberman says they are very anxious about it.
“My understanding is that there is some anxiety among some family members about what might have been said,” she tells CNN. “Again, not necessarily for legal reasons, but just because there are things… which are at odds with other statements that have been made.”

Trump’s former senior advisor, Jason Miller, however, isn’t holding back. This morning he took to Twitter at 5:30 a.m. to call the whole thing a “farce.”
“This is it??? All the drama and bluster surrounding the Alex Holder ‘documentary’ and the J6 Committee, and this is it???” Miller, who appeared before the January 6 committee via a taped deposition, tweeted. “What a farce.”

Trump truly is a has-been.
It’s time to look forward.
CIVIQS poll (07-03-2022):
Joe Biden’s approval rating has hit an all-time low for any president.
Approval: 30%
Disapproval: 62%
DeSantis 2024!

Awww, the anti-LGBTQ foreign troll account desperately tried again.
Hey sweetie, remember when you were telling all about the “Red Wave” that was going to come in 2020 and how Republicans were going to win the White House and both sides of Congress?
Nice to see you never learn from your mistakes. As always, your troll game is sad and weak.

Cam, I don’t mind the current propagandist assigned to this account. Being a cut and paste queen is much better than the unhinged ramblings and atrocious grammar of the other operatives they cycle through these accounts.

LOL. No. I don’t approve of everything Biden had done but I’ll never vote Republican.

DeSantis might not even survive the governor’s race this year.

Right when Trump passes gas it parts DeSantis’ hair in the middle.
Frankly outside of Florida no decent person can stand the smell of his hair. In Florida is the official state smell, let’s keep it that way,
Joshooeerr
Nice try. But the evil spectre of Trump and everything he stood for will haunt the Republicans for the next 50 years at least. Watch DeSantis (or whoever comes next) try and pivot to a “new” republican era while still trying to own Trump for the sake of keeping his many demented followers. That kind of schizophrenic campaign can never work. Then in another four or eight years – as the hard-core Trumpers die off – they’ll try to explain away Trump as some weird mania that overtook their party, taking everyone – just not them – by surprise. That won’t work either. In maybe twelve or twenty years they can just not refer to it, like it never really happened; but it will still be the elephant (ahem) in the room. Obvious in it’s absence. By then a new party will most likely have had to be built to wash clean the Republicans who don’t wish to ally themselves with Trump. Sure, Trump is a has-been. He always was a has-been. And now you’re party is the Party of Has-Beens.

The Trump’s are so desperate for publicity and have been protected by media for so long it never occurred to them it may be a bad idea to have a documentary filmed while they were committing crimes.
As for Maggie Haberman. She is a Trump supporting reporter, so take whatever she claims they are saying or feeling and times it by 3. Haberman’s mother is an executive at the firm that did P.R. for Trump and Kushner and she has been shilling for them for years.
