It's not looking good…
In an interview with Newsmax on Wednesday night, Alina Habba sounded less than optimistic about her client Donald Trump's chances of prevailing in his New York criminal case.
Trump is being charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records to make alleged hush money payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels.
Appearing on Wednesday's “Greg Kelly Reports,” Habba was asked about the proceedings.
“How are you and what do you think tonight about everything?” Greg Kelly asked his guest.
Habba struck a tone of resignation:
…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, Greg. And I think everything's by design. We're in a case that was eight years old, over the statute of limitations, was denied by [former Manhattan District Attorney] Cy Vance, then brought only after President Trump decided he was going to run for office.
“It's very troubling,” she added. “We're in the fight of our lives at this moment.”
