Alina Habba went all-out against Kamala Harris in her first remarks from the podium as senior adviser to Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign.
Habba, the former president’s lawyer, is now taking on a more prominent role in the campaign and is being used as an attack dog against Vice President Harris now that she is the presumptive Democratic nominee.
Habba was unapologetic about his criticism of Harris, intentionally mispronouncing her name, criticizing 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 campaign adviser.
“Now let me tell you something, Kamala: You are committing a crime,” Habba said to enthusiastic cheers from the crowd at the Farm Show Complex in Pennsylvania’s capital. “Because the only co-conspirator I know of in the Biden-Harris administration is you. And you have lied to us about President Biden for the last three and a half years.”

Polls show more than half of American voters believe there was an orchestrated “cover-up” to prevent the public from seeing the full extent of Biden’s worsening suitability for office.
A whopping 92 percent of those who believe there was a cover-up think Harris was at least partially involved in the ruse.
“Let me tell you, America,” Habba continued, “your policies are the same ones we have been living with for three and a half years. So make no mistake, they do not work.”
“She’s worse than a socialist. She’s worse than Bernie Sanders. And guess what, Kamala, you’re going to lose just like him,” the lawyer 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 earlier.
Pennsylvania is very important in the 2024 race and is one of the few states that will determine the outcome of the election in November.
In 2016, Trump won the Keystone State by just 0.7 percent, but in 2020, the state flipped blue, giving Biden a victory over the incumbent president by 1.2 percent.
Pennsylvania Democratic Gov. Josh Shapiro campaigned for Harris in a Philadelphia suburb on Monday alongside Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. Shapiro is being considered as Harris’ running mate after she became the Democrat’s de facto nominee last week.
Habba, who has lived in Harrisburg for three years, said she was “excited” to have another chance to speak after the convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, earlier this month because she didn’t get the chance to go after Harris, who had not yet taken over the Biden campaign at the time.
Habba established himself as an attack dog against Vice President Kamala Harris in his scathing comments against the presumptive 2024 Democratic nominee.

“We’re dealing with a Democratic Party that literally doesn’t know who they’re going to put up against my candidate, Donald Trump. So who do they pick? Kamala,” the mother of three said to jeers from the crowd, to which she replied: “Yeah, boo.”
“I’m very excited because when I spoke at the Republican National Convention I didn’t know she was the person we were going after,” she said. “But now I do, and I’m going to talk to you, Ms. Harris.”
“I am a strong woman, a mother, 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 with the Constitution,” Habba said, intentionally mispronouncing her name as “cam-a-la” instead of the correct “coma-la.”
“I don’t care how much money you have behind you, the truth comes out and President Trump has been and is innocent of all crimes except loving this country,” he said.
