Newsmax: Robert Finnerty - Alina Habba Interview: 'Working For Donald Trump Has Left Her Worried About ‘Seemingly’ Promising Career?'

Source:Farron Balanced with a look at Donald Trump's Manhattan, New York civil attorney Alina Habba.

"During an interview on Newsmax this week, Alina Habba was asked about her future as a lawyer due to the damage that she could incur to her reputation for representing Donald Trump. It took Habba a moment to digest that thought, and it clearly made her realize that her future isn't looking very bright at this point. Her entire demeanor changed after this question, and it was evident that she knows she's not going to go on to bigger and better things. Farron Cousins discusses this." 


"Rob Finnerty then asked, “Since you hooked on with the former president, and started representing him. Your career has has skyrocketed. I think Alina Habba is now it’s a household name. Really? But you’re young. You’re young in your career. How concerned are you about what this could mean for your reputation down the road?”

“In terms of what?” Habba questioned.

“Well, there are a lot of attorneys out there that no longer want to represent the former president. Right or wrong. I’m not casting judgment right or wrong because of what it, the implications it has for their careers. And you’ve got a bright future seemingly,” Finnerty added.

“I have to tell you the truth, I wouldn’t do anything differently,” Habba replied, adding:

I’m so proud of the work that I’ve done. And any attorney who actually reads transcripts and looks at the rulings that we got before we got into court, evidentiary rulings, things like that, losses that have happened. And we’ve had wins, many wins, but nobody reports them. But the losses that have happened are not a result of the facts not being on our side or bad lawyering.

They are a result of the fact that he is the leading candidate, for the Republican Party and frankly, for president in general. So I can say that, look, trolls will be trolls and I would never change a thing. I am proud of the work I’ve done, and it is truly an honor to work for a sitting, a former president and, future president again. So as for anybody else that has an issue with that, that can’t see through that, you’re just you’re you’re not looking at the big picture here. We’re changing the country and fixing the country, and I’m proud to be part of that mission.

From Mediate

As far as Rob Finnerty's key question of Alina Habba here: she basically dodged it, after he rephrased it. She sort of acted like she didn't understand it and then just went into: "The media only reports about our losses (meaning her losses) and not about her wins." The obvious being there: what wins?  

And before that, Alina basically putting the blame for all these cases and her horrible losses trying to defend Donald Trump, on the fact that she believes the media thinks that Donald Trump is unbeatable in the 2024 presidential election. 

So again, to go to my original point about Alina Habba that I made back in November, she's not a real trial lawyer. At best, she's a legal spokesperson, or partisan political lawyer, who argues her cases through friendly media like Newsmax, not on court where all these cases are actually tried and decided. (She would've learned that in law school) It's as if she went to journalism school, or majored in political science, thinking that's where you become a lawyer. 

"Alina Habba is not really a trial lawyer. She can barely afford to do whatever she does as a lawyer right now. She's more of a public relations lawyer, if anything at all, who makes her living trying her client's cases on TV and on social media. But she's officially Donald Trump's civil lawyer right now because she's about the best of what's left to try to defend him, because of his own financial situation and all the evidence that's against him right now, in multiple cases. 

Perhaps one of the reasons right now that Alina Habba owes millions of dollars, is because her own client is not paying her. But she's trying to work for him anyway, perhaps banking on the fact that defending a former President of the United States, would lead to clients who can and would pay her very well for her legal advice and actions in the future. But that career strategy is obviously not working out for her right now. "
