Guess Habba wasn’t all that good at faking being smart.
Not that she’s all that pretty either.
Pity.

Cecile Richards, the former longtime president of Planned Parenthood and the daughter of the late Texas Gov. Ann Richards (D), revealed her brain cancer diagnosis.
Two heroes, Anne and her daughter Cecile. In this time of misogyny and madness, the Richard women stood up for progressive values. Women like them are leading us out of the dark.

The biggest differences being that he was kidding, and he didn’t have to fake anything.

Looking at Jesse Waters Swiftboating attempts, maybe Alina Habba can make it as a fact free Faux News host, because I’m not certain this attorney thing is going to work out for her long term. Perhaps not even short term.

Habba is a no-name attorney in Bedminister, NJ who caught the car. Likely the only attorney Trump could get.
She thought this was her chance but instead she proved her incompetence and poor judgment. Today we learn Habba doesn’t get to manage the appeal of the case because she lost the case.
When people fail we sometimes say they have flown too close to the sun.
Habba flew too close to the Devil.

Aftermath of apparent Levittown beheading of father shown on Youtube (phillyburbs.com)
A Levittown man who police say beheaded his father then posted a grisly video showing his severed head to social media while ranting about killing federal government employees has been charged with homicide.
Justin Mohn, described as the youngest son of the victim, was taken into custody in Fort Indiantown Gap, some 100 miles away from the Upper Orchard Drive home officers found the decapitated body of his father, Michael Mohn, on Tuesday. He was arraigned on murder charges at midnight and brought back to Bucks County, said Middletown Police Lt. Pete Feeney.
n Wednesday morning, police confirmed Michael Mohn, 68, was beheaded, as his son told the world he did in a YouTube video the day before.
Justin Mohn posted the 14-minute video to YouTube around 5:30 p.m. Tuesday. In it, Mohn holds up a decapitated head wrapped in plastic and claims it is father, a federal employee of more than 20 years. He described his father as a “traitor” in his violent, anti-government ramblings on the video.
“He is now in hell for eternity as a traitor to his country,” Justin Mohn says of his father on the video, which appeared to be filmed in a bedroom.
In the video, Mohn describes himself as the “Commander” of America’s national network of milita, which he called Mohn’s Milita — also the title of his YouTube channel — which had 15 subscribers and eight videos as of Tuesday night.
The video, reviewed by this news organization, includes a manifesto-style rant in which Mohn calls on his followers to take action against federal employees. It is titled “Call to Arms for American Patriots.”

Apparently, Habba is now taking advice from Trump and foolishly acting on it.

I’m not sure those jokes weren’t in retirement by the time she was born. Not that they’re not spot on, but it’s embarrassing when the target of the joke asks who Rodney Dangerfield is. Besides it’s really more accurate for her client in oh so many ways. The bluster of Elihu Smails and the wisdom and foresight of Carl Spackler.
