Former President Donald Trump’s attorney Alina Habba revealed how she pushes forward despite being “afraid” of the country’s future.
Habba spoke at Turning Point USA’s AmericaFest on Sunday. She reiterated the impact Trump’s fraud case in New York could have on others. New York Attorney General Letitia James is seeking $250 million from Trump in the civil case and a prohibition against him from conducting business in the state.

“Everything is at stake. It’s not just about what I see in the courts. And I said this outside the courtroom: President Trump has me. I’m outside screaming at a mic with a camera in my face, but what’s gonna happen when it’s you?” Habba said of the case.
“We’re gonna keep fighting for our children and for generations to come. And I can tell you we will look back years from now, and let’s remember these moments. Let’s remember how we all came here because we were afraid of what’s happening to our country, but I always tell my children one thing, and I’m gonna say it to you all: The opposite of fear is faith.”
“The opposite of fear is faith, so let’s be able to say that we made our country stronger, we made it more free, and we made it more prosperous.” @AlinaHabba #AmFest2023 pic.twitter.com/P1QLGpBsRO

Habba is the founding partner of her law firm, which is located near Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. She has represented Trump as he’s been charged with two violations of a gag order, resulting in a total fine of $15,000. Trump filed for a mistrial but was denied.
“So let’s be able to say that we made our country stronger, we made it more free, and we made it more prosperous, and let’s be able to say that when the storm came, and when the tides rose and when the noise got loud, we were loudest,” Habba said.

AmericaFest will continue through Tuesday in Phoenix, Arizona. Other speakers who addressed the conference included collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines, comedian Roseanne Barr, and Donald Trump Jr., among others. Turning Point USA hosts a variety of conferences throughout the year. The former president is not expected to speak at AmericaFest, as he is in Nevada this weekend to campaign, but his Republican opponent Vivek Ramaswamy made an appearance.
Trump has maintained a massive lead in the polls for the GOP presidential nomination despite the various indictments against him, which include federal charges of mishandling classified documents. He has pleaded not guilty to all 91 felony charges.
