"I'm very proud of what the team did in there, and I think you know, obviously, I'm limited to what I can say," she continued, referring to Justice Juan Merchan's gag order. "He is under oath still, and obviously, I'm an attorney for the president, but I think we did. We did a pretty good job, and quite honestly, I was surprised myself by how well it went."
Habba was Trump's attorney, but is acting as a spokesperson during the hush money trial. Trump is facing 34 charges of business fraud relating to payments made to an adult movie star he allegedly had a sexual relationship with.

Habba also told Smith that Trump wanted to take the stand and testify in his own defense.
"Well he's got to listen to his attorneys," she explained. "It's not as much what he wants to do. We know he wants to testify. He is willing. He is able."
"He has nothing to hide at all. He's absolutely ready to tell the truth," Habba added. "So the real question is one that would be discussed within the legal team, and of course, we'll discuss it with our clients."
