Day two of the Republican National Convention is now done and dusted, but millions of onlookers are continuing the conversation online.
Speakers included Mike Pompeo, Eric and Tiffany Trump, all of whom made their pitch for why Donald Trump should remain in the White House.
But it was the final act that remains the hottest talking point, a rare speech from Melania Trump, from the Rose Garden.
Various computations of the night’s headline speaker trended on Twitter, including “Did Melania” and “Melanie,” as armchair critics scrutinized the First Lady’s language, her outfit, her gardening skills and just about everything in between.
Bette Midler kept her followers entertained with a tweet storm throughout the broadcast.
Check out some of her comments below.
#Eric didn’t seem like he was on drugs tonight. I’m sure his brother and Kimberly refused to share.

Opportunity Zones? Please. Another huge real estate scam. Don’t get suckered into this. They’re coming for your wallet.

#timscott says he is the only black Senator; I guess he’s forgotten all the others, like Barack Obama, who came before him. He failed Civics, and says that in the Senate, he’s not alone. This failure extends to the White House, where #DonaldTrump has broken us all. #175,000dead

How dare Kim Klack steal #ShirleyChisholm’s slogan? “Unbought and unbossed” belongs to her and always will.

Yes, she’s letting him hold her hand! That’s another million, #Asshat!

Please say they are not going to come back. Look, he’s clutching her hand. She’s not going to get away tonight!!

And in Belgium, I bought a great Hermès Birikin bag, which I keep in my left hand so that I don’t have to touch him. Ugh.

We visited places of great significance, and I swatted his hand away at every stop.

I’m surprised Trump wants to destroy the #PostOffice. He got all his wives from it.

Oh, God. She still can’t speak English.
