No matter how big Clinton wins, Republicans leadership will say, "Mandate? What mandate? The people rejected Trump, who doesn't represent Republican values at all.  It's our job now to work against the disastrous policies of the incoming Clinton Administration."

The biggest effect of a Clinton landslide will be to catapult Ted Cruz into the GOP stratosphere.  The leadership loathe him for what he pulled at the convention, but when did they not loathe him?

If anything, a massive Clinton win with nonexistent downballot coattails sends the biggest message. It's a rejection of Trump specifically, rather than something that can be spun into a rejection of the Republican Party or American conservatism more broadly.
