Kimberly Guilfoyle's RNC speech sparks shock and awe — and an online challenge
When Kimberly Guilfoyle shouted, "The best is yet to come!" at the Republican National Convention, she probably wasn't referring to all the jokes inevitably made at her expense following her, um, intense remarks.
All the same, the former first lady of San Francisco and ex-wife of California Gov. Gavin Newsom inspired plenty of memes and comedy material — including from TV host Stephen Colbert, who went live with "The Late Show" to break down Monday night's RNC opener.
"Next stop on the love train was [Donald Trump Jr.'s] girlfriend and vengeful banshee who will haunt your dreams Kimberly Guilfoyle, who screamed this message of hope," Colbert quipped.
"I've tried to look at California, but there's fire everywhere because of climate change," Colbert said. "By the way, her ex-husband is the governor of California . I'm guessing that was not an amicable split. But I think I know who was awarded custody of the rage, because when it came to the president's agenda, she had some very nuanced screams."
Colbert wasn't the only one who noticed the high volume at which Guilfoyle delivered — and sometimes yelled — her address.
"The Daily Show With Trevor Noah" simply reacted to the speech by retweeting a random series of all-caps numbers and letters from Lady Gaga. And Broadway star Bette Midler sarcastically wondered if Donald Trump Jr. later appeared to be crying because his girlfriend yelled at him.
"After yelling all the way in the limo ride, Kimberly is now yelling at the waiter at The Capital Grille in DC," Midler joked on Twitter. "Kimberly needs a hug."

Someone needs to tell her she is not an immigrant..... She's Puerto Rican which makes her an American citizen..... Maybe not in the eyes of a number of Trump supporters given what we saw during the hurricane Maria's response, but she's an American Citizen!
SHHHHH .........I'm hoping she gets deported.
I heard that history is a bitch at times. PR have been citizens since 1917.
... that US citizenship sure did pay off with the current administration.
I think somebody should ask for her birth certificate
Lady, you are far from the best and I don't give a damn where you come. You are involved with a Trump which makes you damaged goods and as corrupt as they are. But cheer up, maybe you can get a conjugal visit with junior in prison. But as those are for marrieds, it might cost you a bj to a guard.
Damn Paula.....you are brutal. Remind me to never piss you off.
Depending on the battle, I take no prisoners.
I can see a SNL skit starring Jr. very soon....
This is an oldie but a goodie. I love Kate McKinnon and Cecily Strong.
Classic Tess.....!
Very funny. But, with Kelleyanne leaving the WH, who are we going to make fun of now?
Material will present itself for years.
You're right. There is no shortages to pick from.
Are you kidding..... Trump cabinet members and appointees..... The gift that keeps on giving.
I have just one question:
What heterosexual, red-blooded woman divorces Gavin Newsom to jump in the sack with Donny, Jr????
I think she needs her woman card revoked
She probably gets to play golf for free.
Well all righty then
lol
Gov. Newsom seems like an intelligent/reasonable guy--so how did he get hooked up with Guilfoyle?
Maybe Guilfoyle is one of those extremely vengeful ex-wives that will gleefully bargain with 'the devils' ( aka the Trump klan ) to get revenge?
Or----just coked out?
