Only four of the once-Cabinet members for former President Donald Trump publicly said they would support his reelection in 2024, according to a new report.

Several strongly oppose his campaign, some are even working against his bid to become the GOP nominee and many didn’t respond to requests to comment on his efforts.

Former Attorney General Bill Barr has some of those most harsh words for his ex-boss, telling NBC News: ‘I have made clear that I strongly oppose Trump for the nomination and will not endorse Trump.’

‘I’ll jump off that bridge when I get to it,’ he added when asked how he would vote in the general election if it ends up being a 2020 rematch of Trump vs. President Joe Biden.

Former Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney said: ‘If anyone can lose to Joe Biden, it would be him.’

Of the 44 people reached by NBC who served in Trump’s Cabinet, only four publicly support and endorse his reelection. This includes former acting Attorney General Matthew Whitaker, his final Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, former budget chief Russell Vought and former acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell.

Additionally, two former Trump officials are actually running against him in the GOP primary – ex-Vice President Mike Pence and former Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley.

Trump’s former Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats says he is backing Pence.

Currently, Trump is polling above 50 percent against more than a dozen other candidates vying for the nomination, according to a FiveThirtyEight tracking. In second place currently is Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis with less than 20 percent.

Others who have not endorsed Trump so far include Mike Pompeo, once Trump’s Secretary of State and CIA Director; two of his former Defense secretaries, Mark Esper and Pat Shanahan; a former Chief of Staff John Kelly; and another former Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire.

Directly on the opposite side of his fellow former Chief of Staff, Mulvaney is among those who wants Trump defeated by another GOP candidate in the primary election.

‘I am working hard to make sure that someone else is the nominee,’ Mulvaney said to NBC. ‘I think he’s the Republican who is most likely to lose in a general election, of all our leading candidates. If anyone can lose to Joe Biden, it would be him.’
