Whatever her unfavorables are, Trump's are even worse IMHO and, once she is past this divisive primary and she is stacked up against Trump, the choice (for most people) should be pretty stark and obvious. Bernie *could* help the situation by spending his time attempting to (re-)unify the party by supporting Hillary and blasting Trump but he and many of his supporters are clinging to the hope that he can somehow pull off an upset primary victory and/or extract significant party concessions at the convention if he stays in through the end of the primary.
