Jasmine Crockett Says She’s ‘Absolutely’ Willing to Take a Head-to-Head IQ Test Against Trump

KIMMEL: “You’ve not met Donald Trump, right?”
Crockett: “No. No.”
KIMMEL: “I feel like he likes you.”
(Laughter)
Crockett: “No.”
KIMMEL: “I do.”
Crockett: “No.”
KIMMEL: “Because I think — I don’t think he would ever admit it, but I think when somebody’s aggressive and funny, they hit his radar. And he did speak about you once.”

[Clip starts]
Trump: “How about this new one they have, their new star, Crockett. How about her? Is she — is that real? Are they serious about that? That’s their new star? If that’s that are new star, they’re in serious trouble. I mean, this is — Crockett! Oh, man. Oh, man. But we have — we’ve done a job, but they’ve totally lost their confidence. And it’s a hard thing when you lose your confidence. But they have. They’ve taken a lot of beatings. And now they’re going to rely on Crockett to bring them back.”
[Clip ends]

KIMMEL: “Why is he yelling your name, Crockett, over and over. ‘Then they’re going to bring in — Crockett!’”
(Laughter)
Crockett: “I actually had not watched the clip. That’s my very first time. My team was aware.”
KIMMEL: “And what does ‘Crockett!’ think about it?”
Crockett: “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 in the House. I’m just saying.”
(Applause)
KIMMEL: “Yeah. Or you wish she was on your side. He also called you low IQ, I’m sure you’re aware of that. Would you be willing to take an IQ test publicly head-to-head against the president of the United States?”
Crockett: “Absolute. Absolutely. Absolutely!”
