GOP Candidate's Plane Loses Oxygen While in Air, Campaign Forced to Cancel Personal Appearance

Republican presidential contender Vivek Ramaswamy canceled a campaign stop in Michigan Monday due to depressurization in his private jet.

The entrepreneur’s plane made an emergency landing due to “an unexpected cabin depressurization issue,” his campaign said. No injuries were reported, according to NBC.

A statement for his campaign quoted Ramaswamy as saying he would appear at the event by Zoom rather than in person.

“I am glad that we can use technology to still engage with one another,” Ramaswamy said in the statement.

The virtual event, when it took place, had an audience of about 60, NBC reported.

As noted by the Daily Caller, depressurization means that the plane’s cabin lost the amount of oxygen required for humans to remain conscious while airborne.

Depressurization can lead to hypoxia, which is a deprivation of oxygen impacting the brain, Randy Padfield, former chief operating officer of Aviation International News, told ABC in a 2014 report.

Is it different if you're on the ground?

I don't see anywhere if the NTSB is investigating this as a malfunction or possible tampering on the ground.

Your observation is begging for a clever remark around Santa Claus but it isn’t coming to me.

While the quality of writing is down, the upside is a target-rich environment for sarcastic remarks, puns, and Dad jokes. But my mind is too tired. Time to put on my cap and settle down for a long winter’s nap.

On Donner, on Blitzen.

Gee, right after he laid out a detailed plan to drain the swamp.

It was either a message or a failure.

How can so-called journalists write an article like this and NOT IDENTIFY the type of jet it was?

He’d better have trusted people looking at his transportation. If the Leviathan decides he’s a threat, he’s in real danger.
