there is a real lack of understanding of what “grace” is. grace is a gift. and like all gifts it should be received in gratitude. and that gratitude must include a sincere effort to repent and make recompense for what you’ve done. anything else cheapens the gift.

Chuck Schumer has internalized the idea that Trump represents real America and he doesn't, so he feels the only way he can also get real America to support him is if he shepherds Trump through his own madness.

![Punchbowl screenshot
“COPENHAGEN, Denmark — A bipartisan group of lawmakers who traveled here on an urgent mission to reassure Danish leaders amid President Donald Trump’s escalating threats to acquire Greenland had a straightforward message.
In an interview between high-level meetings, Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin summed it up this way: “Give us a chance to give [Trump] a way out of this that comes to the right ending.”
Durbin added: “I don’t know if that’s possible.”
The four-decade veteran of Congress, who’s been on dozens of CODELs, wasn’t just referring to Trump’s apparent determination to take over the Danish territory at all costs, or Republicans’ hesitation to openly defy him. Durbin was giving a sobering assessment of Congress as a supposedly coequal branch of government.
Over the span of several decades and under the leadership of both parties, lawmakers have ceded their authority to the executive branch on everything from war powers to tariffs to the power of the purse. Hill leaders have prioritized avoiding politically difficult votes or been slow to react – or done nothing – as presidents repeatedly pushed the limits of their own power at the expense of Congress.
“It’s not just this moment or this president,” said Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.), who co-led the delegation. “What makes this moment so hard is, if Congress can’t stand up in the face of something where there is no strategic value and lots of strategic harm…is Congress really willing to exert its authority at all?”
That’s what made this particular CODEL so uniquely difficult — and surreal.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cf26plxwia7dxpm6plry3sj2/bafkreibjseyx4567lbf33ldoqqe66czitqhdzl7ppsi4s3swrfyo6dtwsu@jpeg)

Insightful point here: Even if you take Trump seriously - he does not like the optics - they rested on an assumption that communities would welcome ICE as heroes, rather than showing the type of solidarity that Trump inherently cannot understand.
Trump is privately worried about the "optics" of ICE raids and his advisers are looking for ways to soften them, Axios reports. I'm calling bullshit: The terror and violence cannot be hived off from the broader policy agenda. They are 100% intrinsic to it.

Trump’s Own Advisers Suddenly Unnerved as ICE Raids Take Horrific Turn
So the president doesn’t like the “optics” of what ICE is doing. But there’s no such thing as sanitized, popular mass deportations—and this is by design.
