President Donald Trump made the bold claim that he plans to give “low IQ” Democratic representatives Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett intelligence tests to “see who comes out best” — before boasting his own intelligence.
Trump’s random insults of the two female Democratic lawmakers came as he made comments to reporters before heading to Pittsburgh to speak at a summit on energy and artificial intelligence.
The president first aimed for the New York rep, saying, “AOC, look, I think she’s very nice. But she’s very low IQ, and we really don’t need low IQ.”
“Between her and Crockett, we’re going to give them both an IQ test to see who comes out best,” he continued, roping in the Texas Democrat.
“Now, I took my test. I took a real test at Walter Reed Medical Center, and I aced it. I got every one of all those questions right. Now it’s time for them to take a test,” Trump concluded.
It’s not the first time Trump has lashed out against AOC and Crockett, both considered rising stars in the Democratic party, and both of whom have been vocally critical of his administration’s policies.
Just last month, Trump took to his Truth Social platform to criticize both politicians, calling the 38-year-old New Yorker “one of the ‘dumbest’ people in Congress” and making bizarre jabs at her intelligence and appearance.
His criticisms came after AOC had called for Trump’s impeachment after he decided to bomb Iran without consulting Congress.
Ocasio-Cortez responded to Trump’s attack on social media, writing, “Mr. President, don’t take your anger out of me — I’m just a silly girl.”
“Take it out on whoever convinced you to betray the American people and our Constitution by illegally bombing Iran and dragging us into war. It only took you 5 months to break almost every promise you made.”
In the same long-winded post, Trump criticized Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN), Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Crockett, 44, of Texas, whom he called a “seriously Low IQ individual.”
Ocasio-Cortez, who represents Queens, graduated from Boston University. Meanwhile, Crockett received her bachelor’s degree from Rhodes College and her law degree from the University of Houston Law Center.
In other comments Trump made on social media directed at AOC, Trump said she should “go back home to Queens ... and straighten out her filthy, disgusting, crime-ridden streets.”
Ocasio-Cortez then proceeded to call out Trump, a fellow New Yorker, before correcting him on where she is from.
“I’m a Bronx girl,” she replied on X. “You should know that we can eat Queens boys for breakfast. Respectfully.”
