I would consider the position of WH press secretary 'very seriously'

Alina Habba, a top ally and spokesperson for President-elect Trump, said late Tuesday that she would “very seriously” consider an opportunity to serve as White House press secretary.

Habba, who appeared on Sean Hannity’s Fox News program, was asked three times about a report suggesting she had “emerged as a front-runner” to serve as Trump’s press secretary.

“Sean, you know me better than that,” Habba said, smiling. “You’d never have me on prime time if I answered questions like that.”

Habba, a lawyer who first rose to prominence defending Trump during his civil fraud case in New York, praised the Cabinet selections Trump made this week, including former Fox News host Pete Hegseth as defense secretary and Gov. Kristi Noem (R -SD) to serve as DHS Secretary.

“It’s time to turn the page. It’s time to make the case for America First,” Habba said. “It’s a decision they all have to make, not me.”

Hannity followed up for the third time and asked, “Serious question, if you were asked to fill that role would you do it,” which led to more laughter from Habba.

“I am very loyal to President Trump. I would think about it,” she said. “Very serious.”

Habba is one of them several top allies and aides to the president-elect who is reportedly in the running to run the White House press shop in the new administration.
