During a recent 60 Minutes interview with Noah O’Donnell, President Donald Trump once more described Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett as “a low IQ individual.”
In response, Jimmy Kimmel reminded the President that the challenge to a live televised IQ contest remains open. Kimmel has offered to host, produce, and promote the event between Trump and Crockett, whom Trump has publicly dismissed.
“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 highlighted that Crockett has accepted the challenge, but President Trump has not yet responded. Emphasizing the seriousness of the offer, Kimmel said:
“We still don’t have an answer from Donald Trump. I know he knows about it—I said it on TV. I am very serious about this.”
To add more weight to the challenge, Kimmel revealed a new oversized trophy labeled “atrophy of the brain.” He joked about its size and the message it would send if displayed on the White House lawn.
“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.”
“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 has challenged President Trump to prove his claims by competing in a live IQ contest against Jasmine Crockett, complete with a giant trophy ready for display.
