The newly released trailer sets the scene on election night 2016 in Michigan. Creator Ryan Murphy revealed earlier this year that the new season would be inspired by the 2016 presidential election.
Murphy had further detailed his season plans when speaking to THR. "What I’m interested in doing is not just the obvious, single-minded point of view but rather express all sides of that equation. What needs to happen in our country now is for people to listen to each other — we may not always agree with each other and we may be horrified by what the other side is doing but we have to move toward understanding." It's "about illuminating and highlighting people who don’t have a voice in our culture — people who are ignored by the current administration and who are afraid and feel terrorized that their lives are going to be taken away."
