Jimmy Kimmel mocked President Donald Trump during his 14 October 2026 monologue after the president declared himself a 'freaking genius' at a Republican rally in Bullhead City, Arizona. The Jimmy Kimmel Live! host ridiculed Trump's account of a cognitive test, suggesting the president was congratulating himself for an achievement whose significance remained unclear.
The remarks followed Trump's campaign appearance earlier that day, where he described remembering five words during a cognitive assessment. He claimed that repeating them immediately and again after several questions demonstrated an exceptional ability.
