Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) responded with confidence when asked by Jimmy Kimmel on Tuesday if she would take an IQ test against President Trump. The question came after Trump had referred to Crockett as a “low IQ” person during an appearance on Vince Coglianese’s radio show in March. Crockett, who was a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, immediately affirmed her willingness, stating she would “absolutely” take the test publicly, as reported by The Hill.
Trump’s comments about Crockett were made in the context of a broader criticism, as he claimed that if the Texas Democrat was the “new star” of the Democratic Party, the party was in “serious trouble.” Crockett, undeterred, responded by pointing out how telling it was that the president seemed so focused on a rising sophomore in the House. “It says a lot when you literally are supposed to be the leader of the free world and you’re worried about a rising sophomore,” she remarked.
This isn’t the first time Crockett has questioned Trump’s cognitive abilities. In mid-April, she voiced concerns regarding his mental sharpness in relation to recent economic shifts connected to tariff policies. Her comments have sparked broader conversation, reflecting the ongoing public interest in the mental and physical fitness of elected leaders. As debate continues, the exchange also brings attention to how discussions around health and competence are increasingly shaping public perception and national dialogue.
