“We had a strong Day 4, we’ve had a strong week despite the situation that we’ve been put in, um, y’know, this court which we strongly believe we shouldn’t’ve been in,” lawyer whose fees apparently including highlighting her hair as her client demands Alina Habba says on a second tier conservative talk network. “We’ve been fighting hard and I gotta tell you, their key witness, y’know, came up, he- he said frankly everything I wanted him to say. I heard it perfectly and I looked over and– I think we’re doing very well, and it’s not going to go so well for Letitia James because at the end of the day, the Trump Organization did nothing wrong and they’re using a consumer fraud statute inappropriately against a private business. It’s not supposed to happen and it’s a very scary precedent for New Yorkers, I’ll tell ya that, Greg.”
Habba fails to mention two key points: the case is being heard as a bench trial, without a jury, because she and her colleagues on Trump’s legal team reportedly did not request one. Second, Trump has already lost a key part of the case, with the judge having ruled that Trump et al had committed fraud. The rest of the case is damage control as they attempt to limit the impending judgment against the Trump criminal organization.
