Alina Habba, an attorney and adviser to Donald Trump, confidently predicted that her client would “destroy” Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris in their upcoming debate. Speaking during a Thursday interview on Fox News, Habba suggested that Trump plans to focus on the economy during the debate, steering clear of other topics such as Hunter Biden.
When Fox News host Martha MacCallum asked whether Trump was preparing for the debate, Habba assured viewers that he was. “Yes, of course,” Habba said. “President Trump is ready, willing always to debate.”
She emphasized that Trump takes his role seriously, saying, “That does not mean that he doesn’t take his job seriously and his — the severity of the obligation to get these people out of the White House so that he can get back in and clean up the mess.”
Habba predicted that Trump would take control of the debate by focusing on policy rather than attacking Harris personally. “We cannot do that if on Tuesday he doesn’t do what he does best, which is he’s going to destroy her, and not in an angry way,” she said. “But he’s going to do so by talking about policy, by being President Trump that I know, and really getting to the heart of things that the American people miss and need to hear.”
As the debate approaches, Habba’s comments suggest that Trump is aiming to present himself as a strong, policy-focused candidate, ready to challenge Harris on key issues affecting Americans.
