After serving in the Trump administration for four years, former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin is keeping his distance from the Republican former president and his campaign, according to people familiar with the matter.
"Mnuchin has not been in the room," said Stephen Moore, a conservative economist who is advising Trump.
A person close to Mnuchin who was granted anonymity in order to recount private conversations, said Mnuchin supports Trump's 2024 run for president.
In 2016, Mnuchin was Trump's national finance chairman during his first run for the White House.
For now, Mnuchin's private equity firm, Liberty Strategic Capital, takes up most of his time, people close to the former secretary told CNBC.
