GOP strategist: Clinton will win but Congress won’t work with her

Hillary Clinton will win in an electoral landslide on Tuesday, but the political baggage she has accumulated over the past year-and-a-half will dissuade congressional Republicans from working with her administration, says longtime Republican political strategist John Weaver. “I believe she’s going to win in an electoral landslide and be the most unpopular president in electoral history, which is quite the paradox,” Weaver told David Axelrod on “The Axe Files” podcast, produced by the University of Chicago Institute of Politics and CNN. Weaver, who often works with more moderate, independent Republican candidates — recently with John Kasich, but most famously with John McCain — believes Clinton’s weak standing will only encourage Republicans to ignore the difficult work of addressing the party’s underlying demographic problems and instead coalesce around opposition to Clinton.
