Why would 44 government appointees in any way, shape, or form -Arguably creatures of "the DC swamp"- accurately reflect the pulse of the American voter? 
Trump voters are MAGA morons. The 44 government appointees were appointed by Trump and now most wished they never worked for the guy.

All MAGA morons should ask why so many Trump appointees walked away from Trump but since they are morons they will try to rationalize their support for Trump and invent conspiracy theories on why Trumps cabinet doesn’t want him anymore.

Ask the people who served under Obama if they would vote for Obama again. They will all say yes.

Let's try this one more time.
Yeah let's. Why do you care if the majority of Trump appointed officials refused to talk to NBC?
You are clearly trolling, no one is this stupid.

I've pretended for the past 6 responses that you are arguing in good faith by explaining that this has absolutely nothing to do with NBC and that they are simply reporting a notable lack of public support for Trump. Something you could easily verify yourself if you ever learned how to use google.

I'm done pretending. Troll someone else.

 reporting a notable lack of public support for Trump
No, they were not. Your statement you quoted from NBC clearly says they were reporting on the results of a question they asked. Everything else you are describing is fanfiction.

If you want to claim NBC noted a lack of public support outside of the questionnaire, feel free, quote that study from NBC, and I will look at that evidence. Otherwise, please keep the fanfiction for a different forum.

Q1: Do you know what the term "Public" means?

Q2: If I told you "person A has never publicly apologized for [insert controversy here]", would you know how to verify this statement yourself?

1) If you want to claim that NBC noted a "notable" lack of public support outside of the questionnaire, feel free, quote that study from NBC, and I will look at that evidence.

2) Again, either Not talking to NBC or OTHERWISE not publicly supporting Trump =/= does not support Trump, publicly or privately.

3) If you actually expected all 44 questioned in the article you cited in your OP to say "yes," then there would have conclusively been some serious corruption going on that you apparently approve of as the way things ought to be. The government shouldn't exist to jerk each other off. It is supposed to work for the non-elites, of which Trump has far more support from than any former appointed government servant.

Address Q1 and Q2 and perhaps you'll discover that you don't need me to provide you with a study to review.

If you actually expected all 44 questioned in the article you cited in your OP to say "yes"...
No one has suggested a unanimous verdict was needed for anything, so the remainder of this is a strawman.

either Not talking to NBC or OTHERWISE not publicly supporting Trump =/= does not support Trump, publicly or privately.
If someone does not publicly state that they support Trump, then by definition, they are not publicly supporting Trump. That follows from the definition of "publicly".

Whether they support him privately is another question, and of course, not supporting him publicly does not tell us anything about their attitude towards Trump privately.

But when you zoom out, this does in fact become notable. Any individual could have their personal reasons for not saying anything, but when only 4 will just say he should get reelected... That raises some serious red flags about the overall attitude towards him, especially when you have a chunk of them speaking out against him.

Do you seriously think Biden's cabinet or Obama's cabinet would be so quiet?

You need to re read what I said. This wasn't it.

Depends just how hard and corrupt they were jerking each other off instead of serving the people.
