Endorse Johnson and try to actually win instead of going down with sinking ship SS Trump
If I were a Republican, that's probably what I'd do too. But I can't see Johnson winning this election cycle even if the party were to do a full reverse against the forecasted iceberg that is Trump.

I can see it
I already think that if Johnson gets into the debates he has a slim-yet-realistic chance of winning. If the GOP abandoned ship for him it would just make it ridiculously easy.
I live in Georgia and work at a hospital in the Atlanta area full of college graduates and whenever politics comes up in the break room the overwhelming support is for Hillary. Those who think georgia is safely red are in for a big surprise come November.

They should endorse Johnson because Johnson actually takes votes away from Hillary considering Johnson has more in common with Hillary than he does with Trump

Just because he's pro-choice (?) and not anti-gay marriage doesn't mean he has more in common with Hillary.
What's good about this is that it forces Trump to defend states that were supposed to be comfortably red, so he has less time to go for the usual battleground states.

That's all it takes. Him and Trump have nothing in common. You don't go from leaning Trump to leaning Johnson it's basically a "WTH" but leaning Hillary to leaning Johnson is a lot more realistic
Indiana Gov. Mike Pence today declared that Donald Trump’s proposed immigration ban would include Christians and Jews from countries with a history of terrorism.
Quote:
“We should temporarily suspend immigration from countries that have been compromised by terrorism, which I think is altogether fitting and appropriate,” Pence said. “When you look at the Syrian refugee program — we had another incident in Belgium over the weekend — the simple fact is that both our Homeland Security and F.B.I. have said there are countries like Syria where people are coming in through routine means, the refugees program and otherwise and we can simply not know who they are for sure. So suspending that program from those countries, I think is in the best interest of the security of our people.”
Pence was asked if this meant the program would include Jewish and Christians citizens of those countries and he reiterated again the policy was based on countries where terrorism existed.
“I think what you heard in the convention speech, what we talked about out on the stump is that we would temporarily suspend from countries or from territories if you will – the caliphate obviously of ISIS expands beyond one country – but to say that individuals that come from regions or countries that have been compromised by terrorism, that we would expand that immigration. I think that’s appropriate until we develop a new vetting system.”
