Dem rep: Voters will have ‘buyers remorse’

Greg Nash

Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) said Monday that American voters will have “buyers remorse” in the new year.

“There will be buyers remorse because the Republicans in Washington in all likelihood are going to overreach,” Jeffries told CNN’s “New Day.”

Jeffries, an early supporter of Hillary Clinton, noted that President-elect Donald Trump failed to win the popular vote. Clinton won the popular vote by almost 3 million votes.
