Donald Trump once more described Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett as “a low IQ individual” in a 60 Minutes interview with Noah O’Donnell. This remark sparked a response from Jimmy Kimmel, who reminded the President that his televised IQ challenge is still pending.
After showing the clip, Kimmel said,
“He keeps saying that. And there’s only one way to find out. I have very generously, for a whole week now, offered to host, produce, and/or promote a live televised IQ contest between our stable genius president and Jasmine Crockett, who he thinks so little of.”
Kimmel added that Crockett has already accepted the challenge, but Trump has yet to respond.
“I know he knows about it—I said it on TV. I am very serious about this,”he emphasized.
To promote the event, Kimmel revealed a new oversized trophy inscribed with the phrase “atrophy of the brain.” He said,
“We have now the biggest trophy in the history of mankind. Look at the size of that thing. Can you imagine that beauty on the White House lawn? A physical testament to Donald Trump’s intelligence.”
He invited Trump, jokingly,
“Come and get it, Mr. You could fill it with bubbles and bathe in it! You can’t do that with the Nobel Prize.”
Jimmy Kimmel challenges President Trump to prove his repeated claim about Jasmine Crockett’s IQ through a live televised contest, highlighting the ongoing public exchange.
