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.
