MAGA Fans Left Stumped By Basic U.S. Citizenship Test Questions In Cringey 'Kimmel' Clip

The late night show quizzed Trump supporters on the U.S. citizenship test to 'find out just how patriotic these patriots are'—and it didn't go well.

Late-night host Jimmy Kimmel recently showcased just how little some of former President Donald Trump’s ardent supporters know about the basic principles of American citizenship.

Sending writer Blaire Erskine to a Trump rally in South Carolina, Kimmel tasked her with a straightforward mission: to convince Trump supporters to participate in a quiz based on the American Citizenship Test, aiming to gauge their level of knowledge about our country.

Kimmel explained that the misconception among many Trump supporters is that America was founded on the idea of excluding those who do not share their beliefs, which is contrary to the truth. To test this theory, Kimmel sought to give these individuals a simple citizenship test.

The first question, "What is the supreme law of the land?" seemed straightforward, but elicited groans, head-scratching, and an odd response from one Trump supporter:

“Guns, liberty, and justice?”

Others had no answer, and one man simply replied:

“Good question, well, I couldn’t answer that one right now.”

The correct answer? The Constitution.

When asked about the number of amendments, responses ranged from 10 to "twenty-something I think," with one person ultimately settling on "maybe 13."

The correct answer? 27.

Regarding the first three words of the Constitution, one confident individual confidently responded with "In God we trust," which was corrected by Erskine to:

"We the people."

Although one young participant correctly answered "We the people," he admitted to receiving help from a passerby, prompting Erskine to jest, "You cheated like Joe Biden!" to a positive reaction from the crowd.

Following a shaky performance on the citizenship questions, the Kimmel crew decided to conclude the segment with a rendition of the United States national anthem, performed by two men wearing Trump hats. While they nearly got it right, they stumbled at the end.

The embarrassing video said it all—and many took to social media to mock the interviewees.





During the same episode, Kimmel hit back at Trump's ongoing grudge over a joke Kimmel made at the Oscars with five very appropriate words that should be etched into Trump's tombstone.

Kimmel shared clips from a Fox News interview where Trump, amidst his legal battles, criticized Kimmel's hosting skills and referenced a Truth Social post read during the Oscars that prompted Kimmel to laugh and tell his audience that it was past Trump's "jail time."

Kimmel noted that "Not only were they laughing at you on Oscar Sunday, there are now dozens of ‘isn’t it your past your jail time’ shirts for sale."

Kimmel went on to say that Trump's tombstone should include the words "Should’ve kept his mouth shut," noting the hypocrisy from Trump, who makes regular headlines for word salad in addition to attacking his political opponents.

Fox News Host Apologizes After His Suggestion That Homeless People Be Euthanized Sparks Outrage

Fox and Friends host Brian Kilmeade was criticized for suggesting that homeless people with mental health issues get "involuntary lethal injection" after the murder of Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina—and was swiftly condemned for an insincere apology several days after the fact as many are calling for Fox News to terminate his contract.

Zarutska was stabbed to death at the East/West Boulevard station on the Lynx Blue Line in Charlotte last month; her killer, a homeless man with a history of mental health issues, has since been charged with first-degree murder.

Nancy Mace Just Tried To Claim She's Never 'Dehumanized' Her Colleagues—And The Internet Brought The Receipts

South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace was called out for hypocrisy after she claimed on CNN that Democrats in Congress have been "dehumanizing" Republicans, a move she would "never" do—despite her record of doing just that.

Speaking to anchor Katie Bolduan while the search for the suspect who killed far-right activist Charlie Kirk was ongoing, Mace objected to Bolduan's observation that she was using "us v. them" language, only saying that things are "very one-sided right now." She also suggested that the situation is so bad for her that she's actually afraid of "just walking out in public."
