Sounds like, either the engine is full of water/oil/fuel... and it's locked up... or the starter gave up. OR... something is stuck in the pump.
Now that it's on the trailer... I would get the sparkplugs out, and see if you can turn it by hand. If you can... see if it will crank with the plugs out.
If you can turn it by hand.... but it still won't crank... I'd say your starter shorted out. It's not very common for that to happen... unless you have a Chinese replacement starter. They suck... and are known to break.
