Okay, I'm sorry, but there is no way in the world Donald Trump is accepting of the LGBT+ community. If anything, he has lied about it (just like Hilary) to gain more support. That's one thing I've gotta put to bed right now.
In an interview with in January, Trump said he would “strongly consider” appointing judges to overturn the Marriage Equality Act. During an interview with Bill O’Reilly in 2011, he said "I just don’t feel good about it". He went on to say “I don’t feel right about it. I’m against it, and I take a lot of heat because I come from New York. You know, for New York it’s like, how can you be against gay marriage? But I’m opposed to gay marriage".
On a much larger scale, his opinions change as often as his clothes, and his views on transgendered people is a little more complex. He initially supported Obama in working toward allowing transgender students to use restrooms that match their gender identity, but later changed his stance by supporting a North Carolina law that restricted restroom access for transgender people. Trump said in June he’s “going with the state", which is ridiculous because, as I said earlier, why the heck would you force people to have to move state so they can use marry who they want, have abortions, and use the bathroom (of all things in the world)?
He also pledged to sign the First Amendment Defence Act, which protects discrimination on religious grounds and prohibits the government from taking action against anyone who “believes or acts in accordance with a religious belief or moral conviction that marriage is or should be recognised as the union of one man and one woman".
So, no. He has a history of being a complete jerk when it comes to the LGBT+ community. I'm gay, and I did all my research on this dude when I first heard about him. 99% of his supporters are all straight white boys who have never had to deal with minority discrimination before, and lucky for them!
