WASHINGTON When Kamala Harris accepted her partys presidential nomination at the Democratic convention last month, several former presidents, vice presidents and nominees to these posts came together in a show of public support for her bid for the White House.

Barack Obama. Bill Clinton. Hillary Clinton. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.). President Joe Biden, who even dropped his reelection bid to unify not just Democrats, but Americans.

And on Donald Trumps side? Which past Republican presidents, vice presidents and nominees are lining up behind him?

We didnt see any of them speak in support of him at the GOP convention in July, but surely theyre out there.

Here, presented for the first time, is an exhaustive list of the previous Republican presidents, vice presidents and nominees to these posts who have publicly said they will be voting for Trump in November:

1. Sarah Palin.

Thats it. Thats the whole list.

The 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee reaffirmed her support for Trump in March 2023.

Former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney said he is absolutely not voting for Trump. Neither is former Vice President Dick Cheney , former vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan , or, presumably, former Vice President Dan Quayle , who helped prevent Trump from stealing the election in 2020. Trumps own former vice president, Mike Pence , whom Trump nearly got killed on Jan. 6, 2021, said it should come as no surprise that he will not endorse Trump.

Former Republican President George W. Bush has not said if hes voting for Trump, but in 2020 he reportedly said he would not support his reelection .

Bush didnt have a positive response to Trumps inaugural address in 2016, where Trump described the country as a dark wasteland of American carnage: That was some weird shit, Bush reportedly said.
