Most Republicans vote in lockstep. Even if they don't like Trump, they'll vote their party in protest of the Democratic candidate.

Most voters that are likely to go for a third-party candidate (who will have zero chance at actually winning) will be weakening the Democratic candidate (Nader votes in 2000 tipped the election to George W Bush).

Many third-party candidates are not presidency-worthy, and some look like this Libertarian activist (pictured) who wrote this opinion article. Doing as he advocates will increase Trump's odds of winning the election.
