Donald Trump makes a lot of comments and later on goes completely against what he said. A 2012 tweet by Trump proves exactly how big of a hypocrite he actually is.
Back in 2012 Trump accused former President Obama of being “transparent.” He tweeted:
“Why is Barack Obama spending millions to try and hide his records? He is the least transparent President–ever–and he ran on transparency.”
Why is @BarackObama spending millions to try and hide his records? He is the least transparent President–ever–and he ran on transparency.

The comments Trump made five years ago completely contradict what his presidency has been like. On Friday his administration released a statement that they will not be releasing any White House visitor logs.
Trump has also made it clear that he doesn’t plan on releasing his tax returns either.
Many people on Twitter decided to bash Trump for his complete hypocrisy.
@realDonaldTrump Your hypocrisy is deafening. The secrets and lies you hide behind are coming to light…
