Trump Attorney Alina Habba Makes Blunt Admission About Trial, But Its No Surprise

Donald Trump s attorney, Alina Habba, issued a downbeat assessment of the former presidents chances of swerving conviction in his hush money trial, which is currently ongoing in New York.

I dont 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, Habba complained to Newsmaxs Greg Kelly on Wednesday.

Habba suggested New Yorks blue state status would be detrimental to the presumptive GOP presidential nominee, who faces 34 charges of falsifying business documents regarding hush money paid to porn actor Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election.

Its very troubling, Habba claimed. Were in the fight of our lives at this moment, she added, echoing MAGA rhetoric about the proceedings.

Habba is not representing Trump in the case but has repeatedly echoed his baseless claims that his prosecution is a political hit job by President Joe Biden .

She defended Trump in his civil fraud trial in New York that ended with him being hit with an over $455 million penalty.
