Alina Habba, the lawyer for former President Donald Trump who'd rather be pretty because she can fake being smart, saw her words turned against her when she tried to insult Stormy Daniels.
Habba appeared on Fox News Tuesday night to discuss with Sean Hannity what she witnessed during Trump's ongoing criminal hush money trial in New York City, where he stands accused of falsifying business records ahead of the 2016 presidential election, when Daniels took the stand.
"When you had inconsistencies with any witnesses it speaks volumes," Habba declared. "When you pick people that are not credible, it speaks volumes."

This latter comment made its way over to X Tuesday night where it almost immediately became the subject of ridicule.
"Speaks volumes that Trump picked her," quipped MSNBC contributor Brian Tyler Cohen.
"She would know about backing people who are not credible, I guess," added Patti Capello.
X user @Ty22best recalled that the attorney represented Trump in his civil defamation trial in which writer E. Jean Carroll — who once said of Habba, "We understand most of what she said is almost entirely made up" — was awarded $83.3 million.
"She was the one who cost Trump $83 million....so smart," he wrote.
"Yes he picked Habba," added @widowmom4. 'Too bad she not a capable lawyer."

Several others posited Habba had taken the opportunity, while appearing on the conservative cable channel, to look inward.
"Alina Habba with some rare introspection," @chunkmonkey quipped. X user Snarky Panda added, "Weird talking about herself like that."
Meanwhile, X user Catherine directed the quote another person's decision-making.
"When Trump picked porn stars and Playboy bunnies to have affairs with," she wrote. "It speaks volumes.”
(Trump denies affairs with both Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal, and has pleaded not guilty to charges linked to those allegations.)
