WASHINGTON, DC: During a recent Patrick Bet-David-hosted episode of the 'PBD Podcast', Alina Habba, the lawyer for Donald Trump, made controversial statements and jokes regarding the terrible Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore, according to RadarOnline.com.

Notably, Habba, who was a guest on the podcast, engaged in banter with the hosts as they played a video of the bridge collapse, which resulted in six fatalities. The conversation then turned into a series of conspiracy theories related to the cause of the disaster.

The hosts and guests discussed the situation in a fun manner during the podcast. A sped-up video of the collapse was shown by Bet-David, which made the participants chuckle. Habba said, "It’s like me driving! You can ask my friends, they won’t get in the car with me."

The panelists acknowledged the absence of hard evidence and characterized their hypotheses as simply speculation when the discussion went into hypothesis on the role of a ship in the disaster. A panelist referred to the clip as a 'cyber attack video'.



 

Many people were critical of Habba and the podcast hosts for their insensitivity, especially in light of the severity of the bridge collapse and the number of people who died as a result.
