For me. False equivalencies mostly from the right.

I do work with someone who seemed to be a supporter. Very religious. I rent a space from her.

I overheard her tell a client, "i didnt mean to upset people, i was just trying to find something nice to say (about trump)". This must have been a third person these two interacted with. To this, the new client, an older gentleman, said "There isnt much nice to say about him." He leaves then she starts talking to me about the Trump Phophecies book. I stared straight ahead and when she finished i told her i hate him and all the reasons why. Lots of statistics which i know dont matter to someone operating largely on faith and visions and "signs". But she did stop talking about it.
I hope distressing three people who pay you, in a day, with that topic might have had an impact. Not sure.
