She isn't giving money to the Democrats because she doesn't have hope for herself.

She has given the Democrats money through good times and bad, but not now.

She has noticed always that her life is relatively cushy, that others have much less, that it isn't fair.

To blunt the unfairness and raw harshness of the set-up, Democratic politicians are flawed instruments and what we have. She noticed that, too.

Now she's stuck in her own gloom inside herself in her relatively cushy life.

It's the kind of gloom that physical comfort doesn't help.

It seems to stretch endlessly ahead. Without hope that she will someday feel better, she can't have hope for anyone about anything. The Democrats get from her no dough.
