Donald Trump says women don't like Hillary Clinton. They dislike him even more.

During his victory press conference after sweeping five primaries Tuesday night, Donald Trump made an assertion that seemed overly confident even for him: He'd do better with women than Hillary Clinton, who could be the first woman to serve as president.

"The only card she has is the woman's card. She's got nothing else to offer," Trump said in a response to a question from Vox's Liz Plank. "And frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don't think she'd get 5 percent of the vote. The only thing she's got going is the woman's card, and the beautiful thing is, women don't like her."

But among women, Clinton is still much more popular than Trump.

About 43 percent of women have a favorable opinion of Clinton, compared to 54 percent with an unfavorable opinion, according to the latest tracking poll from nonpartisan technology and media company Morning Consult. And 39 percent have a "very unfavorable" opinion.

Given Trump's assertion that Clinton's gender makes her more popular, it's worth noting that she's quite a bit more unpopular among men than she is among women.

Trump, on the other hand, is viewed favorably by just 34 percent of women — and that's actually better than he scores in most polls, perhaps because "somewhat favorable" was an option. (Gallup found that just 23 percent of women have a favorable opinion.)

The majority of women really don't like Donald Trump:

And in a head-to-head matchup, if the election were today, Clinton would trounce Trump among women unless nearly all undecided women broke his way.

Given how little he's liked, that seems quite unlikely.

Will you support Vox’s explanatory journalism?

Most news outlets make their money through advertising or subscriptions. But when it comes to what we’re trying to do at Vox, there are a couple of big issues with relying on ads and subscriptions to keep the lights on:

First, advertising dollars go up and down with the economy. We often only know a few months out what our advertising revenue will be, which makes it hard to plan ahead.

Second, we’re not in the subscriptions business. Vox is here to help everyone understand the complex issues shaping the world — not just the people who can afford to pay for a subscription. We believe that’s an important part of building a more equal society. And we can’t do that if we have a paywall.

So even though advertising is still our biggest source of revenue, we also seek grants and reader support. (And no matter how our work is funded, we have strict guidelines on editorial independence.)

If you also believe that everyone deserves access to trusted high-quality information, will you make a gift to Vox today? Any amount helps.
