“ The Trump admin is the most transparent admin in decades and they provide much more access to the dishonest press than most admins.” Citation needed

  Cabinet meetings with the press present, press is present at nearly every event, they have significantly more access to cabinet members. I don't have actual numbers, but I know how often Biden spoke to the press, and I know it was always scripted on who can ask what.

    Not really. Biden had a press pool like every president before them, and the press was free to disagree with him. He just didn't do interviews. Trump's DoD just threatened to revoke press credentials of anyone who reported on things they didn't authorize. Also, the other current scandal is one of the people reporting on RFK both slept with him and gave him positive coverage, which is wild. Trump regularly kicked reporters out of the press pool for saying things he didn't like and then took over deciding who can be in it and who isn't. It's not really transparency if you make sure to include only people who promise to say what you want them to say, is it?
