On Twitter, Stormy Daniels Slays Trump Trolls and Steers a National Conversation

There's no denying that Donald Trump knows how to use Twitter to his advantage. In 2016, he rode his blustery, often error-prone missives to a surprise victory that shocked the world and steered a national conversation. But, a year into his presidency, there's a very different Twitter user who appears to have commandeered the ship, one whom the president probably hopes we'd soon all forget: Stormy Daniels.

Since going public about her alleged affair with Trump, Daniels's wry, smart and wicked fast Twitter replies to some of her detractors have proved to be at turns entertaining, profane, depressing and, yes, salacious. The adult film star, who was allegedly paid $130,000 in 2016 to keep quiet about her sexual rendezvous with the president, has dished on everything from Trump to the nuances of the English language, racking up close to 600,000 Twitter followers in the process.

Below, you'll find a sampling of some of Daniels's most popular tweets, comebacks, and taunts. If her Sunday interview on 60 Minutes is anything like her Twitter feed, it'll definitely be one to watch.

She has no qualms about starring in adult films, despite the onslaught of people who insult her for it:

Technically, it is my job to get dicks to grow...which I have a pretty good record of doing judging by my long career in front of/behind the camera in porn. I got some cool awards, too! https://t.co/y0VAIpSX3G

I was curious about this too. I really question the priorities of someone more worried about the quality of a pornstar than a president. The only decisions I'm really responsible for is what position I want to do next & what color lipgloss best compliments my costar's penis. SMH https://t.co/vntX4wdGKd

Technically I didn't sleep with the POTUS 12 years ago. There was no sleeping (hehe) and he was just a goofy reality TV star. But I digress...People DO care that he lied about it, had me bullied, broke laws to cover it up, etc. And PS...I am NOT going anywhere. xoxoxo https://t.co/Js9sEnanIk

Does heaven have a maximum dick-taking number? More importantly, does hell have a minimum? Just want to check that my quota is on track. https://t.co/vBauCrsdCP

and she's passionate about grammar, spelling and semantics

The correct spelling is "skank" https://t.co/E1Ie16OXC4

Correct spelling is "lying" but you got me...what is a "toe rag" ? https://t.co/Kj2241AhQR

If you troll her, she will likely troll you back.

At least the sewer won't reject you although you're probably used to rejection by now. https://t.co/X5bbmpW0Bq
