In reply to the discussion: This race is about one thing--and one thing only--the working people of Ohio. [View all]Uncle Joe
(63,997 posts)21. I believe Nina was referring to actually voting for
one candidate; Trump that would never go through with much needed constructive reforms or the other; Biden which I believe she believed would more or less just be part of the status quo and the status quo is unacceptable after decades of the middle class and poor being left behind in deference to the mega-wealthy and powerful forces in our nation.
For too long it has been Wall Street over Main Street.
The "government is the problem" and the era of the "big government is over" mentality has all but neutered Democratic power in my mind.
I believe Nina certainly could've phrased her feelings better but I understand her deep frustration as well.
