On Monday night, former Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle, a top fundraiser for the Trump reelection effort and girlfriend of Donald Trump Jr., delivered a booming, scenery-chewing speech at the 2020 Republican National Convention that immediately went viral.

It concluded, her arms outstretched, with Guilfoyle’s bellowed vow, “The. Best. Is. Yet. To. Come!”

CNN personalities were flabbergasted by it, with correspondent Dana Bash remarking, “Oh, my goodness. I just feel like that was so intense, and so dark.” Late Show host Stephen Colbert mocked the pretaped address as a series of “very nuanced screams.”

Her critics found the speech to be over-the-top and “strange.” The leader of the free world vehemently disagreed.

Minutes after her speech aired on Monday evening, President Donald Trump called Guilfoyle, to effusively praise her for the address he’d just watch on TV, comparing her to Eva “Evita” Perón, according to two people familiar with the phone conversation.

1. I love how DU's subject line omits accented characters...

At first I thought I saw Eva PORN.

[milestogo]

5. I think he meant Porn Eva.

[TreasonousBastard]

7. It doesn't eliminate anything-- just has a limited number of characters, so you can't be...

lazy with copy and paste.

(I was wondering who Eva Pernod was)

[Cha]

13. It does for me.. it eliminates this..

"~"

[CurtEastPoint]

14. No, as I said, it does not display accented characters.

[ornotna]

18. ŚUŔĔ ĨŦ ĐŐĘS

It's a pain to do but it can be done.

[CurtEastPoint]

23. I do not even wanna imagine how you did that! WTG!

[ornotna]

24. You can do it

you use the Character Map on your computer to build your word or insert the special character you need.

[muriel_volestrangler]

28. Only, I think, for characters outside the 'normal' 256 ASCII range "eg Ś but not , or "

that ought to read "eg Ś but not é, € or £" - Ś is Unicode 015A, é is Unicode 00E9 - and that's the accented character we need here (among the commonly-used Latin alphabet characters with ASCII code above 128 but below 256, ie 0080 to 00FF in hex). My UK keyboard can produce € and £ directly, but they still get left out of thread and reply titles. Even when I use preview, it strips the 128-256 characters - not just from the preview of the eventual look, but also from the "Reply title" box).

[TreasonousBastard]

21. I read too fast and was just thinking about length, but yeah, it likes straight US ASCII.

[panader0]

17. I used to really like Pernod--hell of a hangover though......

[Celerity]

32. it does eliminate many things, like our 3 extra vowels in Swedish for example... Lindstrm

Lindström

ö, ä, å are no-goes in the subject line

[lunatica]

34. It eliminates accents or any extra symbols over the letters

[MurrayDelph]

25. I thought that meant

she was one of Anne McCafrey's dragons.

She does has a dragon-lady vibe about her.

[treestar]

2. The Dotard knows who Eva Peron was?

Maybe he just learned.

[Trumpocalypse]

3. He saw the movie Evita

[Dream Girl]

4. Back when he wanted to date Madonna

[malaise]

22. Hahahahaha

The truth

[TreasonousBastard]

8. Whatever-- he still doesn't know anything about Evita if he compares her with Guilfoyle.

[TheBlackAdder]

19. Yeah, there is no way that fucking peanut head had Eva Peron anywhere within it.

[tulipsandroses]

20. I bet all he knows is what he saw in the Don't cry for me Argentina music video

I doubt he even had the attention span to watch the movie.

[appalachiablue]

29. First thing I thought, impressive!

[tanyev]

6. Rational people would say that's not a compliment.

[Vinca]

9. Anna Navarro said it scared her dog so badly it hid under the bed.

[Midnight Writer]

11. It rousted my cat who was sleeping on the couch. He looked up at the TV like "WTF?"

[appalachiablue]

30. +1. I only saw a photo and it scared me, mad Medusa on meth

[TheCowsCameHome]

10. He meant Eva Braun.

Silly him.

[appalachiablue]

31. +1

[hatrack]

12. I compared her to an enraged warthog on meth, but that's just me . . .

[Disaffected]

15. I wonder if she has ever appeared in

The Taming of the Shrew (play or movie)??

[spanone]

16. more like a raving lunatic.

[Judi Lynn]

26. She's too restrained, in my view. She should be more accessible.

[spanone]

27. Your point makes sense!

[lunatica]

36. LOL!

[Celerity]

33. or

or

[lunatica]

35. Evita was strange too.

[JHB]

37. I call BS. The "leader of the free world" isn't mentioned anywhere.

Not even sure who that is these days, probably Angela Merkel.

It's certainly not Trump. Republicans threw that title away when they elected him.
