The problem is that if it's postponed or the EC doesn't vote for Trump, Republicans will claim democracy is dead.
The EC was meant to be a check on the voters and the states in case they elect someone like Trump. Any elector is allowed to vote for whomever they want, even though some states may give penalties to those who do. If the EC has to vote for whomever they're pledged for, then we might as well just make the whole thing automatic.
