You even named the ones you would find acceptable. We had an election. Hillary Clinton won the popular vote. If any change should take place, it should be for her, not some other lousy Republican.

No elector pledged to the Republican would even consider doing what you suggest. That you suggest it is an insult to everyone who supported the Democratic nominee.

Substituting some other Republican for Trump is NOT ACCEPTABLE in any way.
