Alina Habba couldn’t differentiate between a civil rights icon and a baseball legend on Monday ― and also swung and missed on a word for testicles. (Watch the video below.)
Habba, President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney who recently became the former U.S. attorney for the district of New Jersey, appeared on Newsmax to support the war in Iran and slam Democrats.
She committed a few memorable boners along the way.
“President Trump should be commended for being the only one with the cahoots, frankly, to go after [Iran], not just for America, but for the world,” she declared.
Cahoots?
The MAGA firebrand presumably meant cojones, which means testicles in Spanish and denotes courage or nerve. Cahoots is usually used as “in cahoots” to describe people secretly working together.
In the spirit of Habba’s bumbling, her gaffe about civil rights leader and presidential candidate Jesse Jackson was also a cahoot.
Habba took issue with former Vice President Kamala Harris’ comments at Jackson’s memorial.
“If you look at polls, Kamala Harris’ comments of desperation at Reggie Jackson’s funeral, and she didn’t even know him. You know, if you look at this, they’re reaching so far, and the American people see it,” she said.
Habba, an adviser to Attorney General Pam Bondi, didn’t go so far as to mistakenly mention that the deceased was called Mr. October and had a candy bar named after him. Her name error was corrected a short time later by host Ed Henry.
