Hard to say Trump would be more transparent if we don't know the reason behind the Obama administration being so secretive about it.
A kill was ordered by the president. They didn't want or need the circus of a trial with the amazing security issues it would entail. He was buried at sea to prevent a shrine being made in his honor.

If Bin Laden was alive, wouldn't he have loved to let everyone know that the US failed to get him?

Think about that for a moment. Why would the US government lie about killing Bin Laden unless they had actually killed him? Why would they get Obama to make that historic announcement on live television and then have him pop up a month or a year later to disprove it all?
