I expect primary targets to be areas with the classically-homeless encamping and crapping on sidewalks. But law-abiding houseless folk could get caught in the net where local hardliners feel emboldened by the EO. As the saying goes "It's not your fault but it's your problem".
Reminder: I maintain a list of cities with laws that affect vehicle dwellers.

There’s a line in there about ability to institutionalize (paraphrasing) anyone with a mental disorder they deem a threat to themselves or the public, regardless of homelessness. If they make being trans or LGBT+ a mental illness will they start rounding up gay people?

Yes. Probably not right away, but yes.

There it is, the second group of Americans to go on Zee Airplane or to Zee Swamp.

That is a lengthy EO. Definitely designed to round up people as opposed to helping them.

I'm more concerned about the crime going on in board rooms.

Mutual aid networks are your safest bet - they're decentralized so harder to target, and you can help with food/supply distrbution, know-your-rights trainings, or just documenting police interactions from a safe distance.
