🎤 Jimmy Kimmel Challenges Donald Trump to IQ Test Against Jasmine Crockett & Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

LOS ANGELES — Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel delivered one of the week’s most viral moments when he challenged former President Donald Trump to face off against Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) and Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in a live IQ test.

During Monday night’s broadcast, Kimmel joked that this would be the “fairest way” to determine who truly has the brains to run the country:

“Three of them. One test. Winner gets the White House. And yes, we’ll livestream it,” Kimmel said to roaring applause from the audience.

Social Media Explodes

Almost immediately, the clip went viral. Millions of views, comments, and memes flooded platforms, imagining the three politicians side by side taking a high-stakes IQ test. Fans on X (formerly Twitter) even launched playful polls: “Who would ace it?” and “Could Trump beat AOC and Crockett?” — turning the segment into a full-blown internet phenomenon.

Political Humor Meets Real Questions

While clearly comedic, analysts note that the stunt also taps into real public questions about competence and leadership:

“Jimmy Kimmel isn’t just making people laugh,” said one media analyst. “He’s sending a message: intelligence and capability matter in leadership.”

No Official Responses Yet

As of now, Trump, Crockett, and Ocasio-Cortez have not publicly responded to the challenge, but that hasn’t stopped memes, debates, and social media engagement from skyrocketing across platforms.

The Takeaway

Even if it’s just late-night TV humor, Kimmel’s IQ challenge proves one thing: late-night television remains a space where comedy can spark conversation, provoke thought, and generate national attention. And in this showdown, the real winner may just be the audience — entertained, engaged, and endlessly sharing clips online.
