Critics mocked Donald Trump’s legal spokesperson Alina Habba on Sunday after she appeared to undermine a reason the former president’s lawyers have given in a bid to delay the ex-president from facing trial before the 2024 election.
Fox News’ Shannon Bream asked Habba how Trump’s legal team — from which Habba was dropped in July ― handled the logistics of “prepping a client for all of those different trials” while running for president.
Trump is currently the Republican frontrunner.
“Yeah. If it was a normal person, honestly, Shannon, I could understand the concern. President Trump is not your average person,” Habba replied. “He’s incredibly intelligent and he knows the ropes. He also knows the facts because he lived them.”
“What is going to have to be prepped for? The truth?” Habba added. ”You don’t have to prep much when you’ve done nothing wrong, so that I’m not concerned with.”
On X, aka Twitter, users suggested Habba had contradicted Trump’s lawyers’ attempts to delay any legal proceedings until after the 2024 election, citing the complexity of the various cases he faces.
