The Blaze? -"Sanders Campaign: Millions of Americans Have Growing Doubts About the Clinton Campaign" [View all]

This makes no sense. Liberal news outlets are slamming on Bernie and shutting out Bernie's clear smack down to Hillary's claim that she is the nominee, but The Blaze of all places is given Bernie the press coverage he deserves, and correctly noting how Bernie is the far stronger general election candidate compared to Hillary. Did The Blaze become progressive all of a sudden?

But Sanders’ spokesman Michael Briggs predictably disagreed with Clinton, citing Sanders’ recent primary victories in Indiana, Oregon and West Virginia.

“We expect voters in the remaining eight contests will also disagree,” Briggs said in a statement Thursday evening. “And with almost every national and state poll showing Sen. Sanders doing much, much better than Secretary Clinton against Donald Trump, it is clear that millions of Americans have growing doubts about the Clinton campaign.”

Polling data shows Briggs isn’t wrong when it comes to a matchup between either of the Democratic candidates and presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump.

Real Clear Politics’ aggregated polling data shows Sanders is polling 11.4 percentage points higher than Trump. In comparison, Clinton is only polling 3.3 percent higher than the real estate tycoon.
