I mean, he can’t be serious in the following quote, right? Because if he is, then … whoa. As you may have heard, on Friday, Ann Romney’s airplane had to make an emergency landing on Friday in Colorado due to an electrical fire in the plane that did send smoke into the cabin. Gratefully, nobody was hurt.
Mitt Romney then decided to comment on it.
When you have a fire in an aircraft, there’s no place to go, exactly, there’s no — and you can’t find any oxygen from outside the aircraft to get in the aircraft, because the windows don’t open. I don’t know why they don’t do that. It’s a real problem. So it’s very dangerous. And she was choking and rubbing her eyes. Fortunately, there was enough oxygen for the pilot and copilot to make a safe landing in Denver. But she’s safe and sound.
Mittens, do you know what we call opening a hole in a pressurized vehicle traveling at an altitude of 35,000 at 500 miles per hour?
Explosive Decompression.
Typically, when that happens, the aircraft tends to fall from the sky.
I mean, he has to know that, right? He has to have learned basic atmospheric science in middle school, right? I did.
Personally, I think Mitt has a very mild or slight form of Autism called Asperger’s Syndrome, which is characterized by significant difficulties in social interaction, alongside restricted and repetitive patterns of behavior and interests. I have it in my family, so I know the signs. Mitt Romney has no clue how to interact with other humans on a social level, which leads to these diarheas of the mouth where what he says is just inappropriate or non-sensical.
Or he could just be dumb.
