Playing againt a straddle...
Two questions:
first if you have a good hand like TJs, 55, KQs etc from late position facing a limper and a button straddle
If you limp you're likely to be raised and out of position to the straddler
If you raise you're at the least bloating the pot with a drawing hand, and could get completely blown off the hand with a 3 bet....
Second, if you're in the blinds facing a button straddle, is there any strategy other than asking for a seat change and losing money until you get it?

I would ISO raise vs the limper as default play.
I have seen GTO preflop solutions for playing against UTG straddle so you could follow that. I haven't seen preflop solutions for play against BTN Straddle(I didn't want to buy them). Are there any free solutions out there for BTN straddles?
vs BTN straddle is also complicated by different rules - some casinos have SB act first and others have UTG act first.
The Internet has never seen a UTG CO location straddle that you encounter in an actual Vegas game
