WASHINGTON — President Trump has more than doubled his press engagement numbers from the same point in his first term and blown past all recent predecessors, according to new data shared with The Post. Trump had at least 493 exchanges with journalists — including interviews and event Q&As — during the first year of his second term, compared to 246 over the first 365 days of his first term, according to figures compiled by political scientist Martha Kumar. The tally includes at least 153 interviews (up from 95 during 2017-18), 327 short question-and-answer sessions (up from 128) and 13 formal press conferences (down from 23) between Inauguration Day and Jan.
