Both Jimmy Kimmel and Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett are ready to call President Trump\u2019s \u201cIQ test\u201d bluff. <\/p>\n

Trump has repeatedly bragged about acing a cognitive test<\/a> he recently took at Walter Reed Medical Hospital, and on Monday he asserted that \u201clow IQ\u201d Democrats like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett wouldn\u2019t be able to pass it. <\/p>\n

Kimmel showed a clip of Trump saying, \u201cYou give [Ocasio-Cortez] an IQ test. Have her pass the exams that I decided to take. Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kimmel replied, \u201cI agree. It sounds like a challenge.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Repeating a bit from his Tuesday monologue<\/a>, Kimmel explained, \u201cNot only do I want to see this contest happen, I want to make it happen… I want to give our brilliant, bigly-brained president a chance to teach those left-wing lightweights a thing or two about brain power live on national television.\u201d<\/p>\n

The contest, which would involve Trump and the two Democrats taking the cognitive test live on air, was dubbed by Kimmel, \u201cThe James C. Kimmel Cognitive Aptitude and Mental Brilliance Invitational.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNow, all we need are the contestants,\u201d Kimmel said, before introducing Jasmine Crockett via video call. <\/p>\n

\"JimmyABC <\/p>\n

\u201cThank you for joining us,\u201d Kimmel told Crockett. \u201cI assume you are aware of the fact that the president, for whatever reason, has challenged you?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very well aware,\u201d Crockett replied. \u201cI know that he can\u2019t seem to find himself in the Oval Office to make sure that he can end this shutdown<\/a>, but he does have time to troll me. So, listen: if he\u2019s down, I\u2019m down.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"QuestionsPresident Trump acknowledged that some of the questions on the Montreal Cognitive Assessment were easy, but argued the later questions were harder. Screenshot via University of Missouri <\/p>\n

Kimmel asked her, \u201cDo you notice any kind of a pattern when it comes to people he frequently refers to as \u2018low IQ\u2019 people?\u201d<\/p>\n

Crockett replied, \u201cThey tend to be women, and they tend to be women of color.\u201d<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s repeated claims to reporters that the cognitive test he took was \u201cvery hard\u201d has raised concerns over his mental health, because the test in question\u2014the Montreal Cognitive Assessment<\/a>\u2014is not supposed to be hard at all for adults.<\/p>\n

Kimmel mocked Trump by quizzing Crockett with some questions that were \u201cof the sort\u201d of questions on the exam Trump took.<\/p>\n

\u201cCan you name this animal?\u201d Kimmel asked, showing Crockett a drawing of an elephant. <\/p>\n

When Crockett answered correctly, Kimmel joked, \u201cWow, you\u2019re gonna crush this.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Both Jimmy Kimmel and Texas Rep.
