Romney, now running for a Utah Senate seat, made the comment at a dinner organized by his Senate campaign, according to a profile of the candidate by the Washington Examiner.

Social media users were quick to jump on Romney for the quote, with most mocking Romney for his wealth and joking that the quote was a failed attempt to seem relatable to average voters.
