All democrats I've ever talked to would vote for whoever was running against Trump though and are very passionately anti Trump.
Most Republican people I know despise Trump, and would never vote for him. They despise Hillary too though. I'd guess most of those think Hillary is less worse, and would either not vote at all in the general election, or grudgingly vote for her.
Trump hasn't proven he can get more than about 10% of probable general election voters out to vote for him, and I strongly doubt that there are many people who haven't voted for Trump yet that would vote for him in a general election. Clinton Trump will be a Reagonesque slaughter.

i think you're underestimating the Trump potential. There are much more than 10% of Americans who are not happy with the current government, not happy with the lack of jobs (imagine a guy out of work for pass the 99 weeks of EI offered, what other choice does he have?). He's rallied the blue collar people and yes there are hatred and racists there as well.
How true is the phrase "the American job is gone"? That's his campaign.
