Alina Habba came out guns blazing against Kamala Harris in her first podium remarks as a senior adviser to Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign.
A lawyer to the former president, Habba is now taking a more prominent role in the campaign and is being deployed as an attack dog against Vice President Harris now that she is the presumed Democratic nominee.
Habba was unapologetic in her criticism of Harris, intentionally mispronouncing her name, slamming the vice president as ‘worse than a socialist’ and accusing her of committing a crime by ‘covering-up’ President Joe Biden’s cognitive decline.
While Habba made a cameo at Trump’s rally at his Doral resort and spoke at the Republican National Convention, her remarks in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Wednesday marked her rally debut as a senior adviser to the campaign.
‘Now let me tell you what, Kamala – you are committing a crime,’ Habba said to wild cheers from the crowd in the Farm Show Complex in Pennsylvania’s capital. ‘Because the only co-conspirator I know of the Biden-Harris administration is you. And you have lied to us about President Biden for the last three-and-a-half years.’

Polling shows more than half of American voters think there was an orchestrated ‘cover-up’ to prevent the public from seeing the full extent of Biden’s worsening fitness for office.
A whopping 92 percent of those who think there was a cover-up think that Harris is at least partially involved in the ruse.

‘Let me just tell you America,’ Habba went on, ‘her policies are the same ones we’ve been living for three-and-a-half years. So don’t get it twisted, they don’t work.’
‘She is worse than a socialist. She is worse than Bernie Sanders. And guess what, Kamala, you’re gonna lose just like he did,’ the attorney concluded.
Thousands of Trump supporters gathered in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania on Wednesday for his first rally back in the state since he was shot at a rally near Pittsburgh just 17 days prior.
Pennsylvania is wildly important in the 2024 race and is one of the few states that will determine the outcome of the election in November.
Trump nabbed a victory in the Keystone State in 2016 by just 0.7 percent. But in 2020, the state flipped blue to hand Biden a victory over the incumbent by a 1.2 percent gap.
Pennsylvania’s Democratic Governor Josh Shapiro campaigned for Harris in a Philadelphia suburb on Monday with Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Shapiro is being floated as a running mate for Harris after she became the Democrat’s de facto nominee last week.
Habba, who lived in Harrisburg for three years, said she was ‘excited’ to get another chance to speak after the Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin earlier this month because she didn’t get a chance to go after Harris, who had not yet taken over Biden’s campaign at the time.

‘We are dealing with a Democrat Party that literally can’t figure out who they’re going to put up against my guy – Donald Trump. So who do they pick? Kamala,’ the mother-of-three said to jeers from the crowd, to which she responded: ‘Yeah, boo.’
‘But I’m so excited because when I spoke at the RNC I didn’t know she was the one we were going after,’ she noted. ‘But now I do, and I’m going to speak to you Ms. Harris.’
‘I am a strong woman, a mom, a lawyer and an American. And unlike you, Kamala, I know who my roots are, I know where I come from, and I don’t play around with the Constitution,’ Habba said, intentionally mispronouncing her name as ‘cam-a-la’ instead of the correct ‘comma-la.’
‘I don’t care how much money you’ve got behind you, the truth comes out and President Trump has been and is innocent of every crime other than loving this country,’ she said.
