7. Also if the Dems move right they will pick up some Rs that don't want Trump.

No matter how you cut it, the Rs are winning at the moment. The country is peeling to the right.
There's really no way to stop it right now.
We'll have to suffer for awhile but have hope that there will be another shift back to the left someday.

The thing is that if Trump wins that shift back to the left may be a lot longer in coming or never come at all.
Your options are to support the D, whoever it is, and hope for a better future someday or not support them on principal and risk a fascist future and complete loss of a future leftward shift.
