The former president’s legal team requested a trial delay, saying Habba had been exposed to COVID and had a fever. She attended the party one day later.
Donald Trump’s attorney, Alina Habba, was spotted rubbing elbows with Republicans in New Hampshire on Tuesday, just the day after asking for a delay in the ex-president’s defamation trial because she was feeling under the weather.
On Monday, one of the nine jurors considering writer E. Jean Carroll’s second defamation suit against Trump was excused for being ill.
Though Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carroll’s lawyers agreed to continue the trial with eight jurors, Trump’s legal team requested a delay, saying Habba had been exposed to COVID and had a fever. She was not wearing a mask during the hearing.
The next day, however, Habba was sighted celebrating Trump’s win in the New Hampshire primary by NBC News’ Garrett Haake.
Yup, my high school valedictorian was the dumbest person I’ve ever met. But she could regurgitate information on a test without understanding it.
I never thought I was smart or dumb, just like a really, really good test taker. I didn’t retain close to what I should have from my university years.
Same. Pretty much I retain information just long enough for it to be useful, then I forget it as soon as I start learning/doing something else.
