From Fox News: Alina Habba, an attorney and legal spokesperson for former President Donald Trump, is taking on a major new role that she hopes will help accomplish the “critical” task of sending him back to the White House this November.
Habba is now serving as a senior adviser to Trump’s re-election campaign, a promotion that comes after she gained national recognition in her legal role on Trump’s team over the last few years.
Fox News Digital sat down with Habba ahead of Trump’s highly anticipated speech at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, where she discussed her new role and gave a preview of what the former president will say to the audience of delegates and supporters who, earlier this week, cheered his triumphant return following a failed assassination attempt.
The report clarified that Habba will continue to serve as an attorney for Trump, but also plans to now be a “voice for President Trump” in order to speak on a wider range of issues.
She shared her feelings about seeing Trump appear at the RNC with the bandage on his ear, saying, “Moved, I think, is the best word for it. I was moved. I think America could see it’s a different President Trump today.”
“I never in my life thought I would live through that, let alone live through it and say, ‘That’s also my friend.’ And that’s been very difficult for me,” she continued. “It’s traumatic, but I’m proud of him.”
Honored to speak to @FoxNews and preview tonight’s speech. Tune in to Fox News tonight at 8 p.m. ET where I’ll be sharing with the American people the President Trump that I know. https://t.co/4v92617Srq
