The Wisdom of Aphorisms

Mitch McConnell liked to say "There's no education in the second kick of a mule."  Apparently there's not much education in the first kick, either.

Maybe he needs to hear a saying we're fond of down in here in Texas.  Molly Ivins said it was a favorite in the Texas Legislature:  "You got to dance with the one what brung ya."  And Trump's supporters are the ones what brung him to this dance.

Can they stir up any real mischief in the Senate?  Well, if Georgia goes Democratic, then no:  not at all.  Can they try anyway?  Sure.  Will they?  If they do, McConnell's gonna have to look closely at his dance card.
