The blockbuster remark came moments before closing arguments in Trump’s second trial in a case brought by E. Jean Carroll

A federal judge threatened Donald Trump’s attorney Alina Habba with jail time on Friday, after the former president’s lawyer kept contesting a ruling after it had been issued.

“You are on the verge of spending some time in the lockup,” senior U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan warned. “Sit down.”

The bombshell remark came moments before the start of closing arguments in Trump’s second trial in a case brought by writer E. Jean Carroll.

    Did he get confused and hire a prostitute as a lawyer?

      The sick irony is she’s a managing partner for Habba, Madaio & Associates LLP. Like, somehow she passed the bar, yet doesn’t understand the basics of how to conduct a trial or how to behave with the decorum befitting a lawyer.

      Makes one wonder how she passed, vis a vis your prostitute statement…
