Stormy Daniels, AKA Stephine Clifford, has become somewhat of am unlikely household name over the last few years.
You already know what she does for a living, you know Trump had an affair with her (while his wife was pregnant with his youngest son), and you know that he paid her off to keep quiet about it.
He paid her an amount nearly three times the median annual wage of an American to shut up.
But in the end, she didn’t. Oh, Trump tries to deny that he ever had the affair, but we’ve seen the canceled checks and heard her agonizing description of a body part of Trump’s I’d rather never think about again.
And that weird thing Trumpers do, where they either deny that he actually did something, or they accuse the accuser of something worse, was out in full force after his criminal trial began.
But Stephanie is not your average “adult film star.” She backs up her claims and she fires back at her detractors better than almost anyone I’ve seen on social media.
Take, for example, X user Thomas Rafferty, who wrote “Does she have a Screen Actor’s Guild card? No. She is paid to have real sex with strange men. The only reason it’s not prostitution is because it’s filmed so other men can watch her do it and masturbate.”
Her instant reply? A picture of her Screen Actor’s Guild card, and the comment “And the Writer’s Guild, too!”
Yup! Writers Guild member, too! 😜💋 https://t.co/uR8NbWZ3Rw [1] pic.twitter.com/Cvi2YCyeb3 [2]

The shaming that comes with both being an adult film star OR sex worker is nonsense. If you think I didn’t “sell my body” to the furniture store where I unloaded literally 6 tons of product a week, you don’t understand how trading your body and skills to make it by works.
Stephanie, however, has no patience for the terminally uninformed. When X user Cynthia Holt posted an article about Clifford’s arrest a few years back for “groping patrons,” the star retorted with an article about the outcome of that case — that she was exonerated, that the police involved were fired, and that she got nearly half a million dollars in a settlement as a result.
Look! Another person who has zero clue what they are talking about. Thank you for reminding me of my huge victory in getting the dirty vice cops fired and my win https://t.co/6hkMyDkuGH [4] pic.twitter.com/0AdCGfkmp7 [5]

Also, again with the “whore” thing? There’s no a person on this earth who hasn’t used their ability, talent, or looks to get something. If YOU got paid to do something you enjoy, I guess you’d have to decide whether or not you’re a “whore,” Cynthia.
But Stephanie won a cool $400K from those cops who falsely arrested her. She fought the law, and the law…LOST, big time.
Yep! That was the day I was falsely arrested in Ohio. I stood up to the dirty cops who did it. They were fired and I was awarded over $400k! Thank you for sharing! https://t.co/SgJzVGZ8D7 [7]

Seriously, if you don’t follow her, do yourself a favor and do so [9]. She’s witty as heck and will constantly make you laugh:

The facts of this case, where Trump is accused of illegally falsifying his financial statements, may cause his supporters to freak out. But we all know it’s true — we’ve all SEEN the evidence — and besides, it’s no reason to attack a woman brave enough to stand up to the former leader of the free world.
