So a variant on the hell hath no fury narrative. What you write makes sense to me.

As to Stormy's motive, here's

As to Stormy's motive, here's mho.

If you go back to the original "Stormy speaks" article on what really happened that first meeting, the shark stuff and all and read it, you'll see that the two of them are simpatico about getting her going making some hay from her name and career. I.E., she's a very transactional person, too, she thinks like the fictional Trump of "The Art of the Deal". He talked like he was very interested and willing to help her promote, give her advice, talk to the right people to help her (and given his interest in pageants and wrestling and the like, that's not totally crazy.) So she has sex with him as like a quid pro quo thank you for any future help.

And instead he dumps her on the business deals. And instead makes this creepy deal to shut up. Dissed her real bad, treated her like just another playmate model. He's a phony, and she fell for his schmooz. She was a Trump fan (of the fictional Art of the Deal Trump) scorned and burned. She's getting what she wanted now, she won, proved herself an even smarter wheeler dealer than him, not just a hooker:

Marketing Lessons From Stormy Daniels

@ Entrepreneur · 2 days ago, agrees with me:

[...] Have a sense of mission.

Daniels is on a mission. She feels that she was mistreated and disrespected, and she's out for revenge. (While, of course, becoming more famous and making a profit). [....]

The more her name is out there, the more she wins, whether she brings him down or not, she's already screwed him by going public, the rest is gravy.

That's it?

In reply to Homage to Stormy. It is

Uh, was Stormy wronged? Not much - it was all very transactional. Maybe having her lawyer playing both sides pissed her off, but "oh I slept with a rich married guy who I didn't like enough to sleep with a 2nd time, but kept seeing, and by the way I do porn movies" doesn't exactly bring up violins. I'm glad she hired Avenatti to bring Trump down, but purely because he's a incorrigible corrupt asshole, not because I think she's owed anything or was MeToo'd. I still don't know what her motives are - simply as a businesswoman, or actually for sake of country, or somehow both, or started out purely business but grew into a passion...

Homage to Stormy. It is

Homage to Stormy. It is somehow fitting that the indignation of a wronged porn star could lead to the final undoing of Donald Trump. Despite the growing power of the #MeToo movement, and the falling of predatory male icons across the political spectrum, the Predator-in-Chief has gotten away with it—until now.

As Deep Throat (whose nickname is now somehow doubly fitting) famously counseled, follow the money. So if we follow the money, Stormy’s rage against Trump and his fixer, Michael Cohen, has now led to the following chain of revelations.

Cohen was not running a law firm. He was running a money laundry. Send payments to Cohen, and you could pay disguised bribes to Donald Trump. As The New York Times has reported, Cohen’s dummy company received at least $4.4 million in funds including money from a Russian oligarch close to the Kremlin, Viktor Vekselberg, as well as money from corporations doing business with the Trump administration, including Novartis and AT&T.

It was the lawyer for Stormy, Michael Avenatti, who first made much of this information public. The special counsel, Robert Mueller, might have unearthed these and other details in due course, but Stormy’s battle gave the issue a nice boost.

All of this is likely to put Michael Cohen at even greater legal jeopardy, and incline him to sing to prosecutors a couple octaves higher. In Trump’s America, in the era of #MeToo, in the era of Eric Schneiderman exposed as a thug, the person of relative honor is a porn star.

Stormy didn’t abuse or assault anybody, she didn’t try to bribe the government, and she didn’t launder money for the Kremlin. It’s a pretty low bar, but it may be enough to help bring down Trump.

Well The Who is fine if it calms you down. But otherwise I think you should stay with the whole goofball clown thing and the HAHAHAHA thing you usually do. If you dwell too much on the hate/pig/Mussolini thing, you'll give yourself a heart attack. Ridicule works and you're good at it. And look hey, Bill O'Reilly is gone and you are still here.

But this rotten, steamy pic of one of the most rotten human beings who ever lived. hahahahhahaha

This pix just got to me.

WHAT A PIG?

See, all I got is that I hate this guy?

This man has never accomplished anything his entire life that might further humanity?

I was thinking of The Who?

I can't explain.

I was thinking of Dylan?

And touching a barbel he points to the sky?

If one watches him closely he looks like mussolini

I might get into this theme further but....

But yeah, we all might be fooled again.
