'But This One Goes to ELEVEN!' Ilhan Omar and the Fantastic Flub Heard Round the World (War)

The average IQ for Somalians is estimated to be 68.

And Ilhan Omar just proved to America that she can't even clear that bar.

In a resurfaced clip from 2025 that we still cannot believe is real, the woman who doesn't know if her net worth is $60,000 or $30 million made the case for her removal from Congress -- and from America -- by confusing the Roman numeral II for the Arabic number, eleven.

What made it even more hilarious was the context of her gaffe. Watch:

Ilhan Omar referred to World War II as "World War Eleven."

I can’t believe this dummy is in Congress

Uhh, excuse us? World War ELEVEN?

Say, who won World Wars III through X?

This should lead to immediate removal from congress. You cannot be this stupid and be permitted to hold elected office. https://t.co/0HXR0D34x6

When Joe Biden used to say things like this on a nearly daily basis, at least we knew it was because he had dementia and was rapidly succumbing to senility.

What's Omar's excuse? Did someone throw more apple cider vinegar on her and destroy her one remaining brain cell?

It's difficult to imagine anyone being dumber than a member of Spinal Tap, but Omar made it happen.

Don’t you have to take some sort of……test…..that includes American History….to become a citizen? 🤔

So Roman numerals apparently sent Ilhan Omar into a full system crash. World War 11? Okay…

If basic numbers are this kind of uphill battle, no wonder her financial reporting was such a conundrum.

Is there a level below the Quality Learing Center or is that already the… pic.twitter.com/kzusEDFlAO

Whatever the lowest level of education there is, Omar is 10 (or X) levels below that.

LEAVE ILHAN OMAR ALONE. I’ve always called it “world war eleven.” It’s a common thing in the Midwest. Everyone does it.

LOL.

How can anyone be this stupid?

Good question. There are a few theories about that.

Just when I was starting to think the Somali thing was a conspiracy theory.

And these are the people whom corrupt Democrats are allowing to bilk billions from American taxpayers.

That's just embarrassing for everyone.

In her defense, Omar often struggles with Roman numerals until she gets to 159.

Then, it just CLIX.

[Editor's Note: Calvin has been taken behind the woodshed and beaten severely for this joke.]

But how would one feel if she misread 51 6 500?

OK. Enough of the Roman numeral puns.

I thought this was an SNL skit. https://t.co/QM6owcR8BV

This would be prime fodder for SNL if it were still a comedy show and not late-night group therapy for libs.

I was out when they brought Downey Jr back for World War 8. https://t.co/vm2SjQNPni

As Biden himself would say, 'End of quote. Read the line.'

She is almost making Hank Johnson look intelligent.

Who can forget all of the islands that tipped over during the horror of World War Eleven?

We've seen eleven World Wars.

But we've never seen the San Diego Padres win the World Series. https://t.co/w8hG5JgW7r

Those poor Padres. One of these years, they'll get there.

If World War XX doesn't wipe us all out first.
