Android and m. Taylor. Com this is cnn its wednesday, april 3, right now on cnn this morning, donald trump on the road and seemingly on a rampage denigrating migrants, bashing President Biden, railing against what he calls rogue judges it deadly earthquake, devastating taiwan officials now worried about powerful aftershocks doing even more damage and dangerous storms and americas heartland tearing apart homes and lives all right, 6 00 a. M. Here in washington, alive. Look at capitol hill on this misty wednesday morning. Were halfway through the week. Good morning, everyone. Im kasie hunt. Its wonderful to have you with us bidens Border Bloodbath. That is new Immigration Branding from former president donald trump, who was back on the Campaign Trail Yesterday in michigan and wisconsin. Trump, who we should note was the first president to disrupt the hallowed American Democratic tradition of a peaceful transfer of power making this claim im here tonight to declare that joe bidens Border Bloodbath. Remember they used the name lead beth, i was talking about something entirely different, but this is a Border Bloodbath ends the day. I take the oath of office. If we dont win this may be the last election, not country ever has. And there could be thats where were going because joe biden is a threat to democracy. Hes the threat to democracy hes a threat to democracy. A Bloodbath Language, of course, came from Donald Trumps mouth when he warned about the consequences for the Auto Industry and the country if he were to lose the election, lets watch that were going to put a 100 tariff on every single car that comes across the line and youre not going to be able to sell those guys. If i get elected now, if i dont get elected, its going to be a bloodbath for the whole thats gonna be the least of it. Its going to be a bloodbath for the country thatll be the least of it. But theyre not going to sell those cars okay. Are panels here. Lets bring into lu oleh run at the white house bureauhief for the Washingt Post republican Strategist M Mormon and carrying finish. She iformer Senior Adviser to llary clintons 2016 president ial campaign. Good morning. To all of you on that cheery note that gorman, let me start with you because look, this is a thing that donald trump does regularly tries to basically take some criticism of him, flip it around on a ted, use it to his own advantage. Hes also trying to do that. Hes hes doing that in both places, right . Both a Bloodbath Language and trying to say joe biden is a threat to democracy weve, got two things going on. One, an issue, immigration where republicans do have strength, but to them trying to flip this messaging about democracy on its head like swing voters do not buy that. We see in the polling. What do you make of how he was campaigning yesterday and whether he is in the space that he needs to be if they the space is Campaign Advisers want him to be, let me put it this is working. I mean, you saw the Wall Street Journal showing ways a five out of six or six out of seven swing states. He has a lead above. Yeah, we can actually show everybody. Yes. Me. Look, it is working and look. This is a tactic weve seen for decades and politics, right . Take a weakness or perceived weakness, try and turn it again. Its your opponent turn into a strength. And so i think thats what hes doing here and we saw this in 2022 as well. It, democracy is kind of a broad bucket. Its kinda of what i view and i think a lot of other folks view as not solely owned by one party or the other is when someone when usually the base of our party feels so strongly about where the country is going, that the threat of the country can end some look i get where youre going with that. But i guess i just keep coming back to january 6 and the actual transfer of power, my point is that when we look, we see democracy as one of the top issues. Its not all democrats is not all coming from the left point of view. I cannot tell you how many people you come across an iowa, new hampshire, who also look at democracy or the country possibly ending from the other side of the so thats the one thats thats what my its my point. Okay hes trying to coopt it with those people, but at the same time, i mean, the Polling Dosha oh that anymore when you get underneath just the top lines voters trust democrats more on this issues because they, they do see trump as someone who is working to undermine many layers of our democracy. The other thing i want to just point out about immigration is that first of all, im a little skeptical. Public pools bulls i come by it honestly, if they all were true, i would be in the middle of a second Hillary Clinton term, which were not so fair enough and reproductive freedom, what not have been a winning issue in 2022, but when you get underneath the hood and you ask people why theyre upset about immigration. They dont actually blamed biden. They actually blame republicans. They have gotten the message that republicans were the ones who walked away from a deal, doesnt mean theyre happy about it. But i think we saw a similar thing in 2022 where people were saying, yes, the economy is a top issue, but you had to go deeper and say, why . I think we always have to remember that the polling is the what, but the why is where the campaigns are run. You listen to the rhetoric coming from both sides. Its clear they are both seeing this as a base election. They want to rally up their faith by for lack of a better word, scaring them. You hear President Biden talk about how democracy is on the ballot if trump wins democracy could potentially go by the wayside. You hear trump using similar language while also calling for a bloodbath if he doesnt win the election. And so theyre trying to rally their base by focusing on the negatives of the other side as opposed to talking about why people should vote for them in the first place, clear that they think that this is the base elections, although i will say that the Biden Administrations willingness to go as conservative as they did in that border compromise, the republican sank does say that democrats acknowledged the sort of vulnerability they havent immigration. I also want to show you Something Else that the former president said on the Campaign Trail Yesterday about hoda unquote Suburban Housewives watch you know, the Suburban Housewives is actually like donald trump, you know why . Because im the one thats going to keep them safe. They just say well, to Suburban Housewives, i dont know. I think i do great with the Suburban Housewives because they want to remain safe so lets just say up front that the polling shows that the quote unquote super been housewives, women in the suburbs of america definitely seemed to have a problem with donald trump. If you ask mitch mcconnell, thats why they keep losing Senate Elections and key states like georgia. But karen, i will say that his point about women voters being concerned about crime is something thats cylinder lake, who is a Biden Pollster she had this to say it in political yesterday. Shes to quote, voters are definitely feeling crime is increasing. And i think you have a combination of increased shootings, increased Media Coverage of crime increased petty crime, postcovid, that is really unnerving to voters, particularly women voters. She is actually saying the same thing as donald trump. They both, right . Yeah. I may have talked to her about this. Look, i think part when we sit here from washington, dc and this was something that really giuliani did very well when he first became mayor of new york city. What did he do . He got rid of he focused on petty crime because immediately if you can, well a broken window theory. So the squeegee guys and panhandling, things that just when youre walking down the street make you feel safer i mean, the murder rates are down, but the pet, but if feels more like if you cant go into a cvs without everything being behind the cupboard where you have to get someone to open, youre going to feel less safe. So i think that thats where the rubber meets the road and thats bigger than whether president can handle thats about mayors, thats about policing on the streets. Its about i mean, theres about a lot more thing. Its a like look, ill be honest, im getting he gotta do see a mood, virginia, and it was broader than purely crime. It is also looking at what people pay in rent. Will we be people can cost of living and looking at the return on their services. And i think that is a little bit more from a technical argument, but its one nonetheless, i think that i think people look at two. Yeah. Well, i mean, i think that that cylinder really gets at the point here that it is the perception of whats going on. Because obviously we can note that crime is down across the country. It is up here in washington, dc. We see that it being up in new york you have young, young Adult Children living in those cities. Youre worried about them. Its something that i clearly, weve got everyone agreeing. This is something thats going to drive the conversation. All right lets go out of this overnight. A powerful earthquake shakes taiwan, buildings collapse, hillsides give way, people are reportedly trapped. Well bring you that plus tornadoes and flooding lash the south and midwest with millions face some severe storms, right now. And a Palestinian American doctor walks out of a meeting at the white house.

Windsor this is the big dam kane who that do welcome back. The Biden Administration is facing mounting anger over its handling of the israelhamas war. A muslim iftar dinner at the white house how did we canceled and replaced with a Policy Discussion because it invited attendees did not feel comfortable breaking bread while over 1 million palestinians are starving in gaza. Both President Biden and Vice President harris were in attendance. One Palestinian American doctor walked out before the meeting ended. Heres his reasoning. We are not satisfied with what has taken place. There has been no concrete steps but keep in mind, were very concerned about the people that are over in the gaza strip that are in palestine right now, who are not just starving, but are facing the threat of a looming refer, invasion and so i was able to share that with the president and let him know that out of respect for my community, out of respect for all of the people who have suffered and what have been killed in the process. I need to walk out of the meeting and i want to walk out with decisionmakers and let them know what it feels like for somebody to Say Something and then walk away from them and not hear them out and not here. There once i turned in the panel, cnn senior White House Reporter betsy klein betsy, this really kind of a crystallization of the anger that palestinians americans, and supporters, many young people in the feel towards the administration around this issue. Hawas the white house at reaction and the bend the Scenes Texture here . Yh. So were in e middle of ramadan. Is the holiest month of the muslim calendar. And every year the Biden Administration has done something to commerate that last year, hosting 350 peopl for a Celebratorreceptn Viously this year, there is this feeling that they couldnt have that kind of a lebration. They needed to scale it bacand they ended up having plansor an iftar dier to break the Fast Wita Small Group of muslim Mmunity Leaderand it became clear to the white house in the course of my reporting with my colleague, Alex Marquardt and Kahlil Abdulh but there just wat an appetite to have a dinner, to break bread at the white house when so many people in gaza are on the brink of starvation and so the white house canceled that plan to have the iftar dinner and scaled it back instead to have this much smaller Listening Session with the president , the Vice President , the National Security advisor, and other top officis and it just it didnt goplanned as you mentioned, ispoke with dr. Thaer ahmad. He is a Palestinian Americ doctor from chicago. He has spent time in gaza, one of the hospitals israels. And he really f described in great detail that devastatiothat he has witnessed the patients he is taken care of who are dying in who are injured, and also who are displaced and he made clear at the end of that that he fell out of respect for his Palestinian American community. He was the only Palestinian American invited that he needed to leave and walk ouof the meeting. And Predent Biden understand why youre doing this. And before or he left, he hand him a letter from an eightyearold, orphaned girl in rafah. Really encouragi him toelp israel, encourages real to stopts planned invasion of that area. And i think thmoment just underscores weve seen that pressure on the president , but also there is now its a real raul emotional moment of tension between these communities. Well and toluene, i mean, one thing we know about President Biden is that he is often most affected an impacted by these pernal moment because he doesnt get to have as many of them as
