The Trump admin. has quietly but systematically removed mentions of 'sexual orientation' and 'gender identity' from executive branch guidelines on discrimination.
"We started this decade with tremendous hope and momentum, and are finishing it with a need to protect all we have achieved in the face of a continuous series of attacks in policy and rhetoric from the Trump administration," GLAAD President and Chief Executive Sarah Kate Ellis said.
While the Trump administration did not immediately respond to a request for comment about the president's LGBTQ track record, one of the administration's spokesmen has touted Trump's pro-gay record in a long statement. "As the first U.S. president in our history to favor same-sex marriage when he was sworn in, President Trump has never considered LGBT Americans second-class citizens and has opposed discrimination of any kind against them," deputy press secretary Judd Deere told NBC News, in part, in November.
