Jimmy Kimmel Taunts QAnon Followers With 1 Scathing Question

Jimmy Kimmel spent a second straight evening trolling followers of the QAnon conspiracy theory, hundreds of whom gathered in Dallas this week in the belief that John F. Kennedy Jr . would show up and help former President Donald Trump reclaim power.

JFK Jr., who died in a plane crash in 1999, did not appear at the event as believers had hoped. One QAnon leader said in an interview that they were told the former presidents son would be there.

Told by who? Kimmel wondered. Q? How many times does Q have to be wrong before they realize hes just making stuff up? They dont even know who he is.

Then Kimmel offered up a conspiracy theory of his own.

Maybe Im Q, he suggested. Do you ever think about that? Its not out of the question. If I was, this is exactly how I would do it.
