1/ Thread on presidential cabinet member demographics. Clinton: Image
2/ Bush Jr: Image
3/Obama: Image
4/ Trump: Image
5/Biden: Image
6/ Methodology: Went to Wikipedia for each presidency and got list of cabinet members to track demographics. Included VP but not president, people who served in multiple positions were counted once. May have made a mistake here and there but think it is generally correct.
7/ The memes about Jews running the Biden Admin are clearly overblown, but interesting that Jews, white gentiles, and blacks are all are at parity in his admin. From my view Bush's cabinet seems to match the demographics of America the most.
Data For Clinton: ImageImageImage

Data for Obama: ImageImageImage
Data For Trump: ImageImage
Data for Biden: ImageImage
