Jimmy Kimmel Asks Republicans To Name A Country On A Map And It Doesn't Go Well

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

Jimmy Kimmel trolled Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and exposed some Republican voters’ lack of geographical knowledge at the same time on Wednesday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

Cruz last week retweeted footage of what he suggested showed supporters of Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) failing to name any country on a map:

Kimmel, however, pointed out the clip actually emanated from an episode of his show in 2018 and the political affiliation of the participants wasn’t known.

So, he revisited the prank in honor of Cruz ― and only asked confirmed Republicans the question.

1. Not surprising. They probably couldn't find their ass either.

4. Nice touch.

I set 'em up--you knock 'em down.

3. That's just plain pathetic.

And yet they don't like it when they're criticized as "uneducated" and/or "ignorant", stupid, etc.

Hey, if the shoe fits.

5. That is so damned embarassing! ...

On the other hand -- "Sweaty Teddy" is worth a giggle.

6. OMG! I knew they were stupid but...

holy shit! I am completely flabbergasted at how stupid.

When the intro said they'd ask people to name a country, I thought they were going to point to a country. Well, they did that a couple times, but these people couldn't name a single country in the world.

7. Oh come on! Have they not heard this amazing song?

Hey it got me through 8th grade geography!

8. Kick!
