12. they are willing to switch their vote to a republican lite

hoping that other republicans will do the same, thereby NOT ELECTING TRUMP

if every dem elector (across the country) did that, along with some of those discontent R electors, it would prevent a trump presidency.

how is that bad?

as it stands, the Rs have it--and the discontent ones will not vote for a dem. but they would vote for someone other than trump.
