Claim:40 out of 44 members of Trump's former cabinet refused to endorse him for president in 2024. Rating:Rating: FalseSince July 2023, the claim that "40 of 44" members of Trump's former cabinet refused to endorse his 2024 bid for the presidency has spread across several social media platforms, including X and Facebook. The numbers come from a July 2023 report from NBC News that was made in advance of the 2024 GOP primary contest. Several of the people who made no statement in the July 2023 NBC News report did publicly endorse Trump prior to the November 2024 presidential election. In August 2024, the Washington Post tracked the positions of 42 former members of Trump's cabinet.
