Vote maybe, but there aren’t any “Conservative” or even “Moderates” in the Dem caucus that switching parties would make logical sense. Manchin comes closest, but his voting record (as of 2015) was still 2/3rds leftist. In 2nd place was ND’s Heitkamp, and she was about 84% leftist. Everyone else in the Dem Senate caucus is in lockstep between 86/88-100% leftist.

A state with a democrat senator that goes overwhelmingly for Trump would make it logical for a senator who wants to be re-elected. Here in Louisiana, all the democrats turned Republican when the state turned hard red. Most are RINO, for sure.
