Kimberly Guilfoyle eventually had to ask her audience at the Florida Republican Party annual dinner to clap for her as her awkward speech fell flat in front of an audience of allies. It was a moment reminiscent of Jeb Bush’s “please clap” moment during the 2016 campaign.

Guilfoyle, the fiancée of Donald Trump Jr, was speaking at the dinner in Hollywood, Florida when she shared her hope that Democrats would lose seats in Congress and be forced to give up control of the White House.

“I’m here to tell you don’t lose hope. On a personal note, I can tell you that I am as hopeful as ever. Because Americans from all walks of life have had enough of the Democrats’ decline,” she told the audience.

“And we are ready, we are willing, and we are able to spark a new era of American exceptionalism,” she added. She paused as a few people clapped and an awkward silence ensued. “You can clap for that!” she said, prompting a few others to join in with the applause.

1. Junior might have already given her the clap.

2. Could have been the other way.

3. Rick Wilson tweeted yesterday that Junior has "moved on." Someone replying tweeted a TikTok video

suggesting he might be involved with Boebert now. I have no idea if any of that's true, but Junior and Guilfoyle have been engaged more than 3 years, so Junior was obviously in no hurry to get married again. And Guilfoyle is 17 years older than Bobo, 8 years older than Junior.

4. I hear Boebert will be glad to give Junior a hand

7. That was truly pathetic. Both the speaker and the crowd. Nt

[BumRushDaShow]

10. Wow. LOL

[2naSalit]

12. Oh she's toast...

Burnt soggy toast. Engaged for over three years and she hasn't aged well at all and no amount of botox and surgery can fix what she's facing. Pun intended.

If he and lewdlauren are sneaking around together, you'll be able to tell when her face gets all ballooned out with fillers and whatever. They don't seem to favor any kind of natural look. I guess if you're going to be one of their clowns you have to look like a clown.

17. Talk about cringe, damn hahahahaha n/t

[GenThePerservering]

32. Geez, after every statement

she grins around the room and hitches herself back.

Reminds me of Marjorie Traitor Greene's weird giggle after every sentence.

5. MY GOD... she's looking more bizarre than ever! When does it stop?

Rhinoplasty; Boob Job; Liposuction; Facelift; Botox; Fillers; Cheek and chin Implants; Eyelid Surgery; Butt Lift; Dental veneers...

Too much makeup and a dreadful Party City wig made from horse's mane or a horse's tail hairs.

8. During the speech, she made the sign of the cross ... twice! What a phony!

Well, I only saw her doing it twice. There may have been other times. But it did seem to be forced and unnatural.

I do not think she read the script of the speech in advance. Maybe she skimmed it, but she did not practice it. She clearly did not write it herself.

I imagine that the words "CROSS YOURSELF FOR EFFECT" appeared as stage-directions in the teleprompter script.

31. Honestly speaking before that crowd of ancient vampires

I would be crossing myself as well.

9. She ain't right in the head, or the face.

They were probably amazed to see an actual blow up doll speak

15. Golden Moldy.

Both her and the American Exceptionalism garbage. It's the Republicans who have caused America's decline.

[caraher]

16. Must be Florida Republican thing

[Brother Buzz]

29. I can give Jeb a pass on that

In real life, he ended his thoughts abruptly and throw that line out for fun and smiled.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

19. This made me smile

[pfitz59]

20. I can't bear to watch the talking gargoyle.

or listen to her over-the-top emoting.

[LudwigPastorius]

21. If that freakshow wanted applause, she...

should have preformed a feat like putting her whole fist in her mouth.

[oasis]

22. Previously, whenever Kimberly said the word,"clap"

her “associates” ran to get penicillin shots.

[Demovictory9]

24. It was embarrassing to watch

[IcyPeas]

25. "THE BEST IS YET TO COME"

[Westcoast4life]

26. Her Botox lips walk into the room seconds before she does.

[Blue Owl]

27. The Bride of Gums is catching up to her quickly in the fake bloated lips dept.

[BumRushDaShow]

30. ...

[Beachnutt]

28. Pathetic

[GenThePerservering]

33. Republicans love that Stepford Wife look

including Gaetz with his botox face.
