Sanders does better than Clinton among women When matched against Trump. Sanders is much stronger than Clinton among white women.

Think about it! Clinton is the weaker candidate against Trump among women. Given every stupid sexist thing said and done by Trump, and Clinton does not benefit. Do women dislike Clinton and her policies that much?!
