2:02 pm
in part, happy easter to all, including those many people, i completely and totally despise because they want to destroy america this of course, just a day after sharing an image of his political opponent, joe biden, tied up in bound in the back of a pickup truck, trump tonight is appearing to test limits of his gag order in the new york hush money case where he's going to face trial in two weeks. trump is also ramping up attacks against the judge in that case, john judge, juan merchan's daughter, posting a link to an article showing her picture just days after attacking her as a quote, rabid trump haider. so you're not discuss this and more as cnn senior political commentator and former senior advisor for president obama, david axelrod. so david, look, a lot of times on holidays like these, we do see contrasting messages between former president trump and others in high office. what do you make of these two very different easter messages? >> well, look, i think trump is nothing if not consistent in
2:03 pm
the fact that he i mean, he marked christmas in much the same way he takes these holidays and he turns them into prophecies of catastrophe ahead, unless he's elected yeah, this is this is how he rose. this is his message that the world is doomed, that the country is doomed unless he is elected and everything's going badly and he's the strong man who can change it. yeah. i mean, this is sort of baked in the cake. the thing about the judge and his daughter is something we should spend some time on though. >> he what he's clearly doing. he's got to trial coming up in late april. that trial could very well end in a conviction a felony conviction for him that carries with it significant penalties i think he's concerned about that and what he is doing is what he always does, which he is branding it. and branding it as a vendetta
2:04 pm
political conspiracies trying to link the judge to buy biden through his daughter's political consulting firm, and it's trying to cast doubt about the whole process so that if it does go against him that he can dismiss the whole thing as a political vendetta and he's going to keep talking that up. the danger omar, is that people listened to this and he put the judges photograph in his in his feet and these are this is very, very dangerous. i mean, we saw what happened before the midterm elections. the attack on paul pelosi intended for nancy pelosi people take his word seriously. we saw it happened on january 6, yeah. where he incited a mom. so to storm the capitol i worry about as these trials ratchet up, as the race ratchet up that we're
2:05 pm
going to see violence because he seems to be intent. intention intended to inside it well, and on that point, look, this is an election year. and as you mentioned, this is a lot of how trump roles. so if you're president biden and president biden's campaign, how do you counter the dark rhetoric and violent threats from a political standpoint? >> yeah. well, look, i think >> that the second part is most important i think that biden has role as president in a candidate someone once said that good government is good politics. this is the case in which it's true he and not just the president, but all those who support them and all those in positions just speak out should be speaking out about this. i mean, what it does remind people is what you're buying with donald trump. you're buying this kind of incendiary rhetoric, this dark menacing rhetoric that
2:06 pm
divides and insights. but it's also important as president and it states to try and calm things down and i think he should be very, very clear that we can compete and we can have competing visions. what we shouldn't be doing is inciting people to the point of violence and putting innocent people at risk. and that's what president trump, or a former president trump is doing with his rhetoric. >> yeah and look, i wanted to there is this, this fascinating or i think will be significant group of voters that we will see this year. it's those that are done with trump. but of course are not quite ready to jump onto biden i mean, a lot of nikki haley's supporters come to mind and for one former secretary, former defense secretary mark esper, was on the show last night. he said he's absolutely not voting for trump, but again, he's not quite there on voting for biden so how do you bridge that gap from a biden campaign
2:07 pm
standpoint to win over what we've already seen over the course of the primary process. he says to be a substantial amount of voters here >> well, i'll tell you something. trump is helping. one of the questions is, now that the races in a general election contexts and trump is getting general election coverage are people going to be reminded of three reasons why they can't vote for him and push to the point where given the choice between trump, who they can abide as a person and as a political leader. and biden with whom they may have policy differences where do they fall? i think trump could push him in that direction? i do think biden jonathan martin wrote a column in the politico on friday asking why biden wasn't contacting more of these republican leaders who have said they can't be for biden. and what he can't do is promise them that they're going to agree on every issue,
2:08 pm
although certainly with market jasper, they probably have more in common, a national security issues than esper ahead with trump. >> but >> but but they do agree on the fact that democracy is rest on fundamental rules and laws and norms and institutions and there's a big difference between joe biden and donald trump, who very, very recklessly would tear those down. >> yeah, yeah. >> look, while there has >> been criticisms and in regards to biden, while there have been criticisms and explorations of how much enthusiasm there actually is, there's no mistaking that, just this past fundraising haul at the event this past week with former president obama and clinton, they raised a record $26 there. that comes on top. or i should say, adding to what has been a large fundraising haul. so what does that say to you? how significant is that number to you and what does that say to you about what needs to be done over the course of this election here
2:09 pm
>> well, look, it's very significant. i don't think money persuades people to vote. i think people made the mistake of treating the event on thursday to some kind of message event. it wasn't a good message event for buying a bunch of wealthy people at radio city music hall for some low dollar donors there as well? and a star-studded event that's not going to win him many votes, but the money that he raised a significant because what that allows you to do is build organization in these battleground states. he's down the road to doing that. i think perhaps i should have started it sooner, but they're doing it now. there was just a piece. i'm an arizona right now. there was just a piece here. this week about how the republican party and the organization of the republican party's and tatters in the state because of divisions that trump has helped propagate, but they have virtually no field hello organization here in one of the key battleground states,
2:10 pm
i think you'll find the same is true in michigan and several other states. trump has money problems and he has money problems because he's not raising money. a lot of the republican donors have been turned off by by his behavior and by the threat of these indictments and by their sense of what he it would be as a second in the second round of his presidency. but he's also siphoning off money to pay for his legal bills, which are enormous. i think i saw 100 million already and the bulk of it may still yet to be yet to comment some of the money that he's raising right now is going to go to pay those legal bills. so that is an advantage that the biden campaign has. it also obviously translates into the ability to run media and adds in key states, which i'm sure there'll begin to do shortly. so there are a lot of things that you can do if you have the resources to do it biden will have it. it's really an open question as to whether
2:11 pm
trump does >> yeah. yeah. luck. lot of a lot of factors at play that's why i'm glad we've got you here. david ox, ron, thanks so much for being with us. >> great to see you. great, happy, stirred everyone. >> happy, sir. >> all right. still ahead and new tonight, we hear from a man who was one of the last people to cross baltimore's francis scott key bridge moments before the catastrophic collapse, he tells me he's lucky to be alive and we have his story next as the work to cut and remove the first portion of the bridge package is underway plus former president trump is selling usa bibles. hearing from a pastor this easter, though, as some christians say, they're put off by this latest marketing this game, you're on the cnn newsroom. stay with us >> this situation with both blitzer weekdays it six nn right now, pet dander skin cells, mold spores, pollen, and dirt are being sucked into your air ducts, get cleaner air and system efficiency. now, with stanley steamer, your air ducts

2:17 pm
bridge id collapsed, but i had gotten over the bridge and someone called me but maybe two minutes later and said, where are you at that was my other job calling us, so i just went over two bridge. they said, well, you know, to bridge just collapsed and i'm like it's really shocked i didn't have any idea of it. >> when you, watch that video and you saw your truck had been must have been one of the last, if not d last vehicle to go. there was 11 other vehicle behind me. it was a tractor that he didn't have a trailer because i actually got in front of him right as we started to go over the bridge wow that was i never saw another vehicle after that. >> what was your reaction when you actually eventually saw the video and just saw the whole bridge? >> i just couldn't believe it. i mean, they look like a toy, just min oh, falling into the water away i. still campbell i keep looking to see if it's still there and it's it's just not it's hard to believe that just that quick
2:18 pm
>> and still almost a week later, there is a lot that needs to be done. major developments on the ground today including the coast guard says the first section of the collapsed bridge has been removed from the water a crane is working on removing other pieces, but as you can see, there is a lot there today, maryland's governor is telling cnn, this is an intricate process that will take time officials have said they hope to create a temporary shipping channel around the wreckage. so at least the ship's can still get in and out of the very busy port cnn's gloria pazmino joins us live from the scene. now gloria you toward an area near the crash site with the coast guard. what did you see? he what did you learn >> yeah. omar, we got very close earlier today and we were able to take it all in just how massive this ship is and how complicated this operation is going to be over the next several days, we have watched the video of the collapsed. so you can see how fast it happens. but when you get up
2:19 pm
close to the dali and you see just how massive it is. it's still has hundred itself containers on top of it. some of them are bench like an accordion. you have pieces of metal that are hanging on top of the ship. they're going to have to remove all all of that and it's going to take a lot of war. they're going step by step to try and make sure they can make it happen as soon as possible. because as you said, they're trying to reopen a part of the port, a part of the waterway so that the port can get back up and running i want you to take a look at just how much we were able to see today and just to really get an idea of what's at stake here >> so you can see we have been able to >> get extremely up close to the wreckage of the dali and we're starting to really get an appreciation in a sense of just how massive this job is going to be. >> you're looking >> at >> 4,000 tons of steel and
2:20 pm
concrete that are sitting on top of that bow that is going to be the most complicated part of this operation. moving all of that, the bri and taking it off the shelf good so that they can begin as cleanup process. >> and then there's >> everything that's laying below the surface, the part that we can't see there is more metal for concrete, more debris in the water. and that's going to be critical because they have to be able to make that safe for the divers who was mentioned can is to get back into the water and continue searching to attempt to recover the bodies of those who were lost. but as we're sitting here now finally, being able to really see it and get up close to it. you really just get a sense of the enormous one of the job at hand >> we know that the families of those who were killed in this
2:21 pm
accident are waiting and hoping that the divers can get back into the water as soon as possible, they remain hopeful that they will be able to recover the remains of their loved ones we have spoken to some of the family members who have told us that that is their only hope. the one thing that they're holding onto so that they can get to have a proper goodbye after losing their loved ones. in this tragic, horrible way. so divers waiting, standing by as soon as it is dave, for them, they will go back into the water and continue to carry out that mission. and that part of it is still very much in the minds of all of the people that are working in this it's area the us army corps of engineers, the us coast guard. there are hundreds of people that are working around the clock to make sure this gets done. they're thinking of them, they're thinking of the people of baltimore that want to see this get cleaned up and hopefully have recovery sometime soon >> i'll mark yeah. >> and of course, as people remember, there are still
2:22 pm
families at the center of his all trying to process the loss of their loved ones. but of course, on the other side of things are really big job ahead which you did a great job highlighting the massive scale that needs to be done there. gloria pazmino, reporting tonight in baltimore appreciate it >> meanwhile, at least seven children between the ages of 12 or recovering following a mass shooting in indianapolis outside of the downtown mall, please say a large group gathered saturday night when officers on patrol nearby heard several shots fired. this is now the third weekend in a row, a mass shooting is happening the annapolis again, the definition of a mass shooting as a shooting the injured or killed four or more people, not including the shooter. i want to get right to cnn's ivan rodriguez to bring us up to date. so i've and what do you hearing and what are you learning about this latest incident here? >> omar indianapolis police says that they rushed to the scene and found a large group of children, seven one of them with gunshot wounds. luckily, they were in the area at the time when they heard the shots. now right now, all of them are recovering from their injuries and no arrest have been made so

2:31 pm
georgia senator raphael warnock, pastor at atlanta's historic ebenezer baptist church the bible does not need donald trump's endorsement and jesus in the very last week of his life >> chased the money changers out of the temple those who would take sacred things and use them as cheap relics to be sold. in the marketplace. the sad thing is that none of us are surprised by this. this is what we expect from the former president if he's not selling us stakes, he's selling us a school whose degree is not worth the paper that is written on if he's not selling us a school is selling us sneakers and now he's trying to sell the scriptures pastor doug paget, joins us with more. so pastor, you describe yourself as a progressive evangelical and i'm curious from your perspective, what do you make of donald trump and this usa bible? >> well thanks for having me
2:32 pm
and happy easter to you into those room. that's meaningful de, as it is to me. but look down trump's selling a bible. it has its own sort of comedic bit to it, which we seek. >> and >> the particular bible that he's choosing to sell this usa bible, this kind of patriot's bible. makes this selling of the bible particularly problematic for me as somebody cares a lot about faith and religion. and the bible, i've spent a lot of time preaching about it, encouraging people to read it, not just by it so there's a lot to be concerned about because of the particular version of bible that donald trump is selling. in addition to the fact that he and chose to have a licensing agreement to raise money for the endeavors of his life by selling the bible >> yeah. >> i mean, look, it's a usa bible as he's being marked as he's marketing. it includes a copy of the declaration of independence, the pledge of allegiance, even some works to elite greenwood song. and i know you touched on it a little bit there, but what in particular about those additions do you think just
2:33 pm
isn't right here? >> look, this is exactly the reason a lot of us are bothered. is that what donald trump is selling as a particular version that is, you say includes the documents from the founding of the united states of america, something that means a lot to us i worked for an organization called vote common good. we traveled the country asking faith voters to make the common good. they're voting criteria. >> we >> think a lot about what it means to be a christian in america. but what we don't want is a christian america and what donald trump is doing is acting and sell it by selling this bible is acting as if the documents of the founding of our country, the declaration of independence, the bill of rights should sit inside the same book as the scriptures of the christian religion. and the jewish religion that blending is where the problem really sets. i've actually known about this version of the bible for a few years. in fact, the number of us lead a protest against the publisher that was going to publish it in 2021. and we talked them and met with
2:34 pm
them and we worked hard to make sure this bible wasn't being supported hoarded by that publishing house. a publishing house that i've published my books with as an evangelical pastor, so a lot of us are bothered not only that donald trump is pitching a bible as a sales gimmick, but that he's chosen a bible that's pushing something a lot of us referred to as christian nationalism meaning he's making christianity and nationalism perspective blended together. and he's done it now officially by pitching this version of the bible. so it's the things that dad it in, not just the fact that he's selling a bible. look, i wish that'll trump has spent a lot of time reading the bible to tell you the truth. and i wish you'd spend a lot of time living out the calls that he would find there. i think it would just be better for him and better for all of us if he were to hear about the things that are in the bible and not anywhere. >> as i understand it, i mean, i use sometimes attend trump rallies to talk to some of his supporters. as we know he he has had some strong evangelical christian support up to this point, and i'm curious when you go to some of those rides, when you talk to some of his supporters? what is your message and how is it received
2:35 pm
>> well, this is the kind of thing that we've been aware of for a long time. i, as an evangelical leader myself and someone who has been really concerned that so many evangelicals have supported donald trump when he was the very kind of candidate that they spoke about in the past as someone they wouldn't support and now they're supporting him wholeheartedly. we've worked hard to invite those evangelical voters and other christian voters to know they have options to not vote for donald trump and to remain solidly in their faith. like a lot of us are doing so that's the work that we do. and a lot of people will tell us when we say, but what do you think about this you as a christian, do you think donald trump reflects your christian values? us, they'll say things like this. well, i don't really think he does. but his policies do or the things he supports are in line with my thinking. so these are not people who are even buying the idea that donald trump is he himself a person of deep personal faith. they don't really care. they just think they're going to accomplish what they want to accomplish. now, here here's the funny thing that'll trump
2:36 pm
isn't pitching a bible because he wants people to read the bible. he is selling the bible as a money-making effort in this licensing agreement that he has with his version of the bible. and frankly, he's trying to message to christians as if he's the candidate that supports the bible now, i don't want any of our ended its out supporting the bible to be frank with you, i think our religion and our christianity for the good of both of our politics and our christianity for the good of both need to make sure they're keeping a close eye on the behavior of the other, but they shouldn't be wedded together the way that they are yeah. well >> pastor, you got a tall task ahead of you. if that's your hope in an election year but it sounds like you're already well on your way to making some progress in what you do. i really appreciate you being with us this easter i know a guy who is here to tell people you don't, donald trump shouldn't be plugging the bible i'm not going to tell them about. only go to vote calm and good.com to know about this. but if they are interested in this kind of work and standing up and christian nationalism, we'd love to know about them over and vote come and good.com. thanks a lot. all
2:37 pm
