Stormy Returns The Favor
Rick Wilson

"This is the only way you're getting out of the trailer park" and other seductions.

She wasn’t the first or last of his affairs. She wasn’t the highest or the lowest of the women he screwed over the decades and marriages.

I’ve known people like this before (men and a few women, to be honest) for whom sex isn’t about sex. It’s about a cluster of pathologies, insecurities, and, sometimes, evil.

Trump didn’t sexually assault E. Jean Carroll for pleasure; it was about his entitlement and hatred of women. He didn’t fuck Stormy for fun; it was a way of feeling above someone, better than someone. Her life and reputation led him to think of her as he seems to think of most women; as a whore, a hole, a tool for his lusts; Stormy was the kind of woman he viewed as essentially subhuman, interchangeable, and disposable.

Trump, an impulsive child raised by a domineering mother and a distant, cruel father, wasn’t trying to fuck Stormy for pleasure or release or even validation. He fucked her because she was one of the few women he felt superior to.

As he tried to seduce her, his desire crude and obvious, he said she reminded him of his daughter. “You remind me of my daughter because she’s smart, blonde, and beautiful, and people underestimate her.” This is not a line one might expect in the great history of seduction, but for Trump, it was practically Ars Amatoria. For all the MAGA folks who constantly bleat about how the elites hate them, Trump’s other line trying to get Daniels into bed is genuinely ironic: “This is the only way you're getting out of the trailer park."
