25. My current theory is that she is trolling Trump.

Trump's mental health is already in decline. He is a know conspiracy nut. Mensch and her crew are probably pushing ALL his buttons. It's gotta make them NUTS. She makes any damn accusation she want and nothing they can do about it. And she is right enough of the time that they can be really nervous that some of her made up stuff is ALSO true. And she is now famous to the point that she is showing up in my Facebook feed from people who dislike Trump but are not particularly dialed into politics.

It's a HUGE dose of their own medicine. They use the same kind of unprovable Twitter propaganda to plant all kinds of nasty thoughts about Clinton in the mainstream press. Now they get a dose of their own medicine. She completely undermines Trump's credibility in this way. Personally, I don't care if it's true or not. I just warn people not to pin too much hope on her promises.

Also, she appears to be a total drama queen who loves the attention. That might also explain her motivations.
