Despite reality saying otherwise, President Barack Obama has staked out the claim as the “most transparent administration in history,” but Republican front-runner Donald Trump has other plans in mind if elected president.

“When people are chosen by a man to go into government at high levels, and then they leave government and they write a book about a man and say a lot of things that were really guarded and personal … I don’t like that,” the candidate said.
