Well, maybe, maybe not, and while this is still in the "rumors" stage, Spicer's response is not an encouraging sign for LGBT folks:

White House won’t deny rumor Trump will sign anti-LGBT order
White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer on Monday declined to discuss an anti-LGBT executive order the nation’s largest LGBT group says is rumored to be in the works from President Trump.
In response to a question from the Washington Blade, Spicer said he wouldn’t get ahead of Trump on any potential executive order he may sign.
“I’m not getting ahead of the executive orders that we may or may not issue,” Spicer said. “There’s a lot of executive orders, a lot of things the president has talked about and will continue to fulfill, but we have nothing on that front now.”
The rumors gained attention Monday after the Human Rights Campaign issued a statement acknowledging them and expressing concerns about executive actions that would rollback LGBT rights.
“The rumors of an anti-LGBTQ executive action by President Trump are deeply troubling,” said JoDee Winterhof, HRC’s senior vice president for policy and political affairs, said in a statement. “We already know that he is willing to target and marginalize at-risk communities for his perceived political gain. As the president and his team plan their next steps, we want to make one thing clear: we won’t give one inch when it comes to defending equality, whether it is a full-on frontal assault or an attack under the guise of religion. Mike Pence should know that better than anyone given his track record in Indiana.”
The Washington Blade has sought confirmation of the rumors, but has been unable to corroborate them with any certainty or ascertain the exact the number of the anti-LGBT order Trump would sign.
