In June 2016, when the timeline was announced, Trump tweeted to "thank" the LGBT community, and vowed: "I will fight for you while Hillary brings in more people that will threaten your freedoms and beliefs."

Remember when Trump vowed to 'fight for' the LGBT community and warned Clinton 'threatened' them?
...
President Trump announced Wednesday on Twitter that he would ban all transgender individuals from serving in the U.S. military "in any capacity." The military "cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail," he wrote.

But back in June 2016, shortly after then-candidate Donald Trump had clinched enough delegates to win the Republican presidential nomination, Trump sang a decidedly different tune. Knowing he would face Hillary Clinton in the general election, Trump positioned himself to Clinton's left on certain issues — like, for example, LGBT rights:


Donald J. Trump ? @realDonaldTrump
Thank you to the LGBT community! I will fight for you while Hillary brings in more people that will threaten your freedoms and beliefs.

In hindsight, it may have been helpful for a member of Trump's staff to inform him that the "T" in "LGBT" stands for "transgender."
