Executive in the Trump Organization
Former Judge, "The Apprentice"

—Was cut off from a Fox News broadcast as a result of an expletive-laden attack on transgender women and girls participating in sports. Trump Junior was speaking at the rally that preceded the deadly siege at the U.S. Capitol.

Mocked transgender and gender nonconforming people a campaign stop in Michigan, where he said Democrats unconcerned with blue-collar workers because they were “more concerned about the 9,276 genders. I can’t list them all. I don’t have enough time and they don’t even know which ones they are. There’s a few more since I started speaking a few minutes ago.”

Attacked trans women in his book Triggered: How the Left Thrives on Hate and Wants to Silence Us, writing that trans inclusion in sports does “a disservice to all the hardworking young women who have fought to get to where they are” and results in “lost scholarships” and “a safety issue” for cisgender women. Trans women do not pose any risk to other women.

Told a CPAC crowd: “If Hasbro really wanted a gender-neutral Mr. Potato Head so badly, they should just slap a picture of CNN’s Brian Sitt-ler on the cover of their next potato,” referring to CNN media correspondent Brian Stelter.
