“Ain’t Nothing Gonna Happen”: The Fix Is In


“Ain’t nothing gonna happen”.
 
This line delivered by Keenan Thompson during a sketch on Saturday Night Live remains my  go to come back on any news that seems to indicate Donald Trump is for a world of hurt.
 
My wife Andrea will breathlessly avail me with the latest news of the latest nail in Li’l Donnie’s impeachment coffin and I just shake my head and say, “Ain’t nothing gonna happen”.
 
Here’s why.
 
Even if the House of Representatives vote to impeach Donald Trump, his actual removal from office is contingent on a trial held in the Senate.
 
Which brings us to this rat bastard: Sen. Mitch McConnell said that from the evidence he’s seeing, he doesn’t “think there’s any question” the Senate will acquit Trump.
 
This is the same evidence that has Andrea all excited about how Trump is finally gonna get it and get it good.
 
McConnell looks at this same information and goes, “Nah, Trump ain’t done nothing.”
 
And I just shrug and sigh. “Ain’t nothing gonna happen”.
 
The House is releasing transcripts of their closed door impeachment hearings ahead of the forthcoming public hearings. These reports are not painting a pretty picture for Trump and his conduct.
 
Sen. Lindsay Graham has said he has not read those reports and does not intend to since the whole process is bullshit anyway.

The fix, as they say, is in. 
 
Sorry, Andrea.  “Ain’t nothing gonna happen”.
