Acting Labor Secretary Julie Su laughed off a question about President Biden’s Cabinet members invoking the 25th Amendment in an interview on Fox News following the latest jobs report Friday.
“Has there been any conversation among the Cabinet members about invoking the 25th Amendment?” Fox Business’s Edward Lawrence asked Su in an interview that aired on “America’s Newsroom.”
Su laughed at the question, then said, “That’s absurd.”
“I will say that what we are talking about is recognizing that we are in a moment where …there’s been incredible progress in the time that we’ve been here,” she added. “And we want to keep building on it … we cannot afford to go back, we cannot afford to reverse course.”
Friday’s Labor Department data showed the U.S. economy added 206,000 jobs in June and the unemployment rate rose slightly to 4.1 percent. Those numbers were largely in line with expectations, but they added to signs that the economy is cooling under high interest rates.
Su’s comments follow discussion around Biden’s fitness for the presidency and ability to beat former President Trump in November, spurred by his rough presidential debate performance last week.
Democrats were sent into a state of panic over his performance, while some Republicans have suggested Biden’s Cabinet should move to remove him from office by invoking the 25th Amendment.
While that almost certainly will not happen, the discussion among Republicans reflects questions about whether they would rather see Trump square off against Vice President Harris.
