Alina Habba keeps low profile as Trump suggests he's shopping for new lawyer

After Donald Trump suggested she would not represent him in his appeal of the $83.3 million judgment leveled against him in E. Jean Carroll's second civil suit, Alina Habba has virtually disappeared off the radar, Newsweek reported Friday.

In a post to Truth Social on Wednesday, Trump said he was considering "various law firms" to represent him in the upcoming appeal.

"I am in the process, along with my team, of interviewing various law firms to represent me in an Appeal of one of the most ridiculous and unfair Witch Hunts our Country has ever seen—The defamation Sham presided over by a Clinton appointed, highly partisan, Trump Hating Judge, Lewis Kaplan, who was, together with certain other Radical Left Democrat Judges, one of the most partisan and out of control activists that I have ever appeared before," Trump wrote in the post.

Habba's performance as Trump's lawyer during the trial came under intense scrutiny from Trump's critics on social media.

But, according to Newsweek, her activity on social media has decreased greatly since the trial ended.

"Since the trial Habba, a regular user of social media sites X and Instagram, appears to have only made one post on either website, and has not spoken publicly," Newsweek's report stated.

One of her few appearances on social media was a like for a Truth Social post that said changing legal representation for an appeal was a "common legal exercise."
