Actually fairly sure trump would have kicked bernie's ass. The problem is they're both demagogues, but the group sanders targets with it is notably less susceptible to it. Add on sanders not being nearly as competent a speaker or campaigner as clinton and the flat fact he'd be less popular with undecideds or repulsed republicans (clinton may have a lot of bad media, but sanders flies the socialist flag and doesn't have the sense to even attempt to make peace with folks too ideologically separate from him), and you've got a recipe for a lost campaign.
Oddly enough, if it wasn't for the baggage of that goddamn media assault making mountains out of mole farts, clinton would have easily been one of the best candidates the dems could have fielded. Like it or not she's without doubt one of the most experienced and capable politicians qua politicking in the current american political realm, and against a demagogue as shameless and undisciplined as trump that's a hell of a benefit.
