Trump's first 100 days in the president's office were marked by dozens of executive actions, heated protest marches, and even a Senate investigation into election tampering. For many LGBTQ+ Americans, the early days of Trump's Republican administration have been fear-inducing. An early draft of a reported executive order legalizing broad discrimination against LGBTQ+ people threw the community into a panic. The dismantling of Obama-era protections through executive orders came with the simple stroke of a pen.

GLAAD President Sarah Kate Ellis once told NBC News, “One hundred days of Trump translates into 100 days of erasure for the LGBTQ+ community. From the Census exclusion to rescinding Obama's guidance for trans youth in schools, and lack of any LGBTQ+ mentions on the White House website, he has spent the early days of his administration trying to remove us from the very fabric of this country, and we must resist.”

Here are only a few of the incidents and actions that the Trump administration took against the LGBTQ+ community in the first 100 days. If we dig deep we will find many occasions proving the administration's desire to cancel the LGBTQ+ existence. Many of the appointments made during the Trump administration were a sign of his apathy towards the queer community. A 2019 report by Lambda Legal indicates that 36% of his appointees have expressed bias and bigotry towards queer people.
