Great idea. That's the way to go, instead of infiltrating a party that doesn't want him. It may also signal the end of the two party, a system that ran its course and doesn't serve America anymore.
Out of curiosity, who were the last ten Republicans you've voted for?
I have for quite a few in local elections.
In a federal election? Haven't voted for a R in a presidential (since I've been eligible to vote in my first in 2004). In Ohio I didn't vote for any R reps/senators, but I've voted for a couple of reps/senators here in CA because I found them to be more moderate than the D's running (they didn't win, unsurprisingly).
And I'll often vote for someone from neither party.
I take time to always read the positions of each person before I choose my votte.
I won't pretend to know what you're trying to do here by asking me this, though - you're trying to see if I'm really a Democrat and am afraid to admit...not at all. I'll gladly say that I generally vote for Democrat candidates. But I don't always. And that's kind of the point. I don't subscribe to either party, and I think that kind of thinking is precisely why we're in the crazy-ass situation we're in now in this country from a political climate perspective.
Country before party. Always.

No, that would be the party of free s*** to Wall Street, big pharma, the military industrial complex and other corporate welfare policies. Lots of working stiffs vote for such policies, thinking they are helping themselves, while the ruling donor class laugh in their face.

In your dreams. As long as we have a first past the post election system, there will always be just two viable parties. You need to fight to change the whole system if you want more viable parties.

Anyone can trot out positions they claim they are for.
What really matters is their voting record and their DONORS. Who are they beholden to? You, the workers or the top 0.01% ruling class in America?
