Trump has no say in transgender issues, sexual orientation issues, etc. However, he does have a say in the Supreme Court justice(s) that he will nominate. Depending on who he puts in the SC, things like same-sex marriage could be overturned. That's not a state's right to prevent you from marrying someone. It's the definition of discrimination and violates equal protection under the law. If the SC would overturn it, then it would allow states to go as far as to say blonde people can only marry other blondes. Black people can only marry other blacks. In fact, overturning same-sex marriage theoretically would automatically overturn the case allowing inter-racial marriage. I hope Trump makes a wise decision with his SC nominee(s) and I expect him to since I voted for him, but it's pefectly understandable why the LGBTQ community would be scared right now.

The SC doesn't like overturning decisions often. If they did it would make the SC look incompetent.
I don't think the homo community has to fear about their marriages.
