After the assassination attempt on former U.S. President Donald Trump, his lawyer of Iraqi descent, Alina Habba, delivered a speech on the final day of the Republican Party conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, expressing her strong support for Trump. The attractive lawyer, part of the former president's legal team, stated in her address at the conference that the attack on the Republican candidate only makes them stronger.
She continued, “The left's madness is a sign of desperation, and the charges and baseless allegations will not deter us,” adding, “Because the only crime Trump has committed is loving America.” She concluded with, “America, we are winning.”
Known for her fierce advocacy, Habba hails from New Jersey and is of Iraqi descent. She is recognized as one of Trump’s staunchest supporters and backs his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election. She has defended him vigorously in legal cases, including one involving payments to silence a former adult film star.
Her photos on Instagram reveal much about her relationship with Trump, whom she has described in the past as very smart and extremely likable. There also seems to be a special friendship between them, as she posted a picture of them together, congratulating him on his birthday this past June. Additionally, she shared other photos of herself hugging Melania Trump and wishing her a happy birthday, with Trump beside them in an image from last April.
They were also seen together at her birthday celebration, where she stood beside Trump and Melania, with a birthday cake shaped like the White House that featured her name and a luxurious bag from the brand "Hermès."
So, who is Alina Habba? This prominent lawyer was born on March 25, 1984, to Iraqi parents who immigrated to New Jersey, according to Bloomberg. Her father is a renowned gastroenterologist named Saad Habba, who has a long list of accomplishments and medical research.
She entered the "Trump world" after becoming a member of his private golf club in Bedminster in 2019. She is currently the managing partner at Habba Madaio & Associates LLP, a law firm that outlines a list of some notable cases she has taken on. However, despite her successful track record, this is the first time she is handling a case involving criminal charges against a U.S. president, a first in the United States.
