Former eBay head honcho and prominent Republican Meg Whitman is throwing her weight behind Hillary Clinton, snubbing GOP presidential candidate Donald Trump, whom she called “a dishonest demagogue.”

Whitman isn’t the latest in a line of right-leaning billionaires to defect from the Republican Party. Mogul Michael Bloomberg and the Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban have also jumped ship to pledge their support for Clinton.

They are overlooking ideological differences they have with the Democratic Party and Clinton to prevent Trump from reaching the country’s highest office, and reflects what many regular voters have to do in this presidential election.

What voting tradeoffs are your making?
