Doocy has progressively seemed more and more anti-Trump in his stances on the show and it appears that Habba meant to confront him on it.
Habba sat with the crew on the set Tuesday to discuss Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ indictment of Trump as well as 18 others over alleged election interference in Georgia during the 2020 election. The four indictments and trials against Trump all appear to be strategically planned to keep him from campaigning for the presidency in 2024.
The attorney discussed the chaotic and shady way the indictment was announced and how the charges against the former president violate his due process. Then Doocy stepped in, quoting a New York Post column written by Fox News legal contributor Andy McCarthy.
“I’ve heard from a lot of legal analysts, and they say what is different about this case than the federal cases is Georgia has laws that are specifically tailored to election interference and things like that,” Doocy stated. “Andy McCarthy, a Fox News contributor, and also, he wrote an op-ed in the New York Post, he said that the Georgia indictment is the most perilous threat to former President Trump. Does President Trump know that this is a perilous threat?”

“And we do not agree that it is a perilous threat because we actually have inside information,” Habba informed Doocy.
“What inside information?” Doocy asked her.
“The inside information, Steve,” Habba started to reply before putting Doocy on the spot. “And you know, you used to love Trump… I gotta tell you!”
She was obviously referring to the fact that Doocy seems to have adopted the role of a skeptical Fox News host when it comes to all things Trump following the Dominion lawsuit. He challenges many things the former president says and takes issue with his supporters on a regular basis, especially when it comes to the “rigged” election or election interference claims.
Press were allowed in the Georgia courtroom but not Trump’s own attorneys.
This just keeps getting more and more ridiculous.

“This is something I’m not going to breach, right? I have confidentiality, and I have ethics, and I’m going to continue,” Habba continued.
She told Doocy, “I think you need to understand something. When somebody is given a report and he has reports that show that there was interference… and you could be advised by one lawyer that says, ‘Oh, I don’t think so,’ and you could have another lawyer that says, ‘No, I do think so,’ and here’s some reports. And we know that there were issues in Fulton County, right? We know… it’s not a question. There was election issues and the integrity of our election is in question at this moment.”

“And when he says, ‘I want to look into it. I don’t trust it. We need to look into it. That’s his obligation as a president. Look at Letitia James, for instance, Steve. Letitia James, the attorney general of New York stood up on a podium, who’s suing the Trump organization, and said, ‘President Trump is an illegitimate president.’ Now, is she going to get criminally charged? What about Hillary Clinton?” Habba concluded.
