In his opening monologue for “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host Jimmy Kimmel decided to mock QAnon conspiracy theorists who arrived in Dallas where they expected John F. Kennedy Jr. to return from the dead.
“You know, the country is getting crazier by the minute,” Kimmel said.
“In Dallas today, hundreds of these QAnon nuts gathered in Dealey Plaza to witness the triumphant return of John F. Kennedy Jr., who you may recall is dead — he died in a plane crash in 1999.”
Kimmel detailed how QAnon conspiracy theorists believe that JFK Jr. is still alive and working as a secret agent for former President Donald Trump.
Furthermore, Kimmel mentioned that “some of these bananas” also believed that former President John F. Kennedy would appear at the rally in Dallas, even though he would be 104-years-old if he were alive.
“You’re gonna find this hard to believe: He didn’t show,” Kimmel joked.
“Can you imagine how rude that is? All those people thought JFK Jr. was coming to see them in Dallas! And even if he did come, do you think he would be on your side?!”
QAnon conspiracy theorists then believed that the Kennedys would be at the Rolling Stones concert later that night, leading to Kimmel making more jokes on the matter.
“Why not bring back Abraham Lincoln too while we’re at it?” Kimmel joked.
“So, neither JFK showed up, but rather than saying, ‘Ok we were wrong this was crazy,’ they immediately came up with a new prediction, claiming the Kennedys and other ‘deceased’ celebrities would show themselves at a Rolling Stones concert in Dallas later tonight.”
