Ben Meiselas: 'Donald Trump Lawyer Makes a FOOL OF HERSELF At Interview ON TRIAL'

Source:Meidas Touch with a look at MAGA lawyer Alina Habba.

"MeidasTouch host Ben Meiselas reports on Donald Trump’s lawyer Alina Habba’s disastrous interview during the criminal trial." 

From the Meidas Touch

"Alina Habba has said that she doubts the New York court system and the jury in Donald Trump's hush money case will do the "right thing."

Speaking to Newsmax's Greg Kelly on April 24, Habba, a Trump lawyer and legal spokesperson, said she didn't think the jury would "do the right thing." 

She said: "I don't have hopes really that high at this moment that the New York courts will do the right thing, that the jury will do the right thing, we're in a blue state as you know."

Habba later posted to X (formerly Twitter) to say that she believes Trump will "prevail" in his trial." 

From Newsweek

Alina Habba: "Let me be very clear: the truth firmly stands with the President. He did nothing wrong and a fair hearing will expose this sham case for what it is—a partisan hoax designed to interfere in the election. President Trump will prevail." 


In case I haven't been clear about what I know and what I think about Alina Habba in the past: this is what I wrote about her back in November, before she became a MAGA media celebrity: 

"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." 


In case anyone thinks that I'm obsessed with Alina Habba or I have a crush on her: I haven't written anything about her in about a month on The New Democrat. And that was about her leaving the country. But unfortunately only for a short vacation. 

No offense to Ben Meiselas, (who I think has been spot on about Alina Habba the last 6 months or so) Newsweek has a better story about her. 

When the evidence and facts are on your side, you argue the facts and evidence in this case. But when they're not, as Carl Sandberg brilliantly said: “If the facts are against you, argue the law. If the law is against you, argue the facts. If the law and the facts are against you, pound the table and yell like hell”

From Goodreads

With David Pecker's testimony, plus all the text messages, the emails, the conversations that they have on tape, the Manhattan District Attorney has already proven that Donald Trump not only knew about the payoff and the coverup, but he was in on it. So Trump and company have already lost that round. 

So what Alina Habba and company want to do now, is have the jury and public believe and see everything that has nothing to do with the facts and evidence of the case: 

This is a Manhattan court 

Manhattan jury

Overwhelmingly Democratic

Donald J. Trump is overwhelmingly unpopular in Manhattan

Judge Juan Merchan's daughter is a Democratic Party activist

Donald Trump is not the only adulterous and cheating politician whose slept with porn chicks and covered up those affairs 

And then they throw new garbage onto the case that it's really Joe Biden and the U.S. Department of Justice whose behind this Manhattan prosecution. 

Alina Habba has essentially already admitted that Donald Trump has lost the case and can't win in Manhattan. But not because of the facts and evidence of the case. Because that would require her to be honest and tell the truth on national TV. Something she's obviously not comfortable doing. What she does instead, is try to make the case about anything other than the actual facts and evidence in the case. But if you look at her track record of using the exact same media tactics, she has a bad habit losing "bigly" for Donald Trump.
