Whether they're falling for fake polar bear attacks or bullsh*tting about the State of the Union address, most people just like to look like they know what they're talking about—and that's how Jimmy Kimmel punk'd some geniuses into revealing they don't know anything about the Civil Rights Movement.

In honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, the Jimmy Kimmel Live! host took to Hollywood's streets and asked several Americans to weigh in on King's "recent endorsement" of GOP frontrunner Donald Trump as the next president of the United States. 

Surprisingly, it did not dawn on several participants that King was assassinated 48 years ago. 

One woman was under the impression that besides King, Malcolm X endorsed Trump's nemesis, former secretary of state Hillary Clinton.
