About as many as there are Jews and redheads.
So why have trans people become a main focus of the Trump administration? Well, they know their base is composed almost entirely of bigots. So it's low-hanging fruit, if you'll pardon the pun.
Also, many leftists don't care about trans people, including many (many, man) LGB people and feminists. See TERFs, for example, but there are others. And any number of Democrats are arguing right now that we should throw trans people under the bus in order to regain power. So there's no penalty for letting Trump and his minions turn being trans into a crime.
If you're as sickened by this as I am, speak up, speak out. Call your reps. Donate to the ACLU. Make some noise.
