She used her past experiences to shield herself from criticism and undesirable cross-examination while in the house. Every "insightful" conversation she had was an attempt to control the narratives being spun around and about her while in the house. That was always obvious to me. She knows how to play on emotions and she has no qualms using her identity to blackmail others into responding to confrontational nonsense. The amount of attention she demanded was always a red flag. People associate that with constructive activism so she managed to get so many people on her side on the outside to act on her behalf that unsurprisingly that led to people digging. But I think she was so full of herself she thought she was untouchable because that's what the past has taught her. So it's no surprise she thought she could get away with it because that's literally her life skills at work. If I'm honest, no person deserves that kind of power and protection. We are all flawed works in progress and we don't *really* need daily reminding from some busybody. What Trish did was on a whole other level. She actively sought to influence and gain power over others with the intention to abuse her position in life. That's how I saw it anyway. She can certainly still find work doing whatever it is she does (and I'm sure she'll be just fine there), but I would never myself want to enable her or anyone the power to deceive others like that again.
