For me, kind of, but not really:

Me talking to a huge Trump supporter: Any Republican who doesn't support Trump is enabling Hillary, and they are short-sighted.  We had our primary, and Trump is way better than Crooked Hillary, so we have to come home to beat her.

Me talking to a conservative reluctant Trump supporter: Look, the Supreme Court is on the line.  If we don't vote for Trump, Hillary will appoint Supreme Court justices who will legalize post-birth abortion and transgender polygamous marriage.

Me talking to a Sasseian conservative Never-Trumper: I agree with you that Trump isn't ideal, and I probably agree that Evan McMullin/Mike Smith/Darrell Castle would be a better president.  I just don't think I want to waste my vote on someone who won't win, when the Supreme Court is on the line.

Me talking to a centrist Never-Trumper, especially one voting for Gary Johnson: JOHNSON IS A LIBERAL!!  A VOTE FOR HIM IS A VOTE FOR HITLERY CLINTON!!!  IT'S OUR DUTY TO SUPPORT THE NOMINEE OF OUR PARTY, TO STOP HER FROM WINNING! (I don't seem to care that they're not very conservative)

Me talking to someone who is pro-life and voting for Gary Johnson:  If you vote for openly pro-abortion Gary Johnson, you're kissing goodbye any hope we ever have of overturning Roe v. Wade!  Never call yourself pro-life again if you vote for him!  He's no better than Hillary!!

That's basically what I said if you read the post.  I can be anywhere from a massive Trump supporter to a very reluctant conflicted Trump supporter, and I think it's because I (very temporarily) take to heart what the other person is saying when it's not a central view (like no one could get me to be sympathetic to abortion).  I'm probably somewhere between an extremely enthusiastic supporter and a reluctant conflicted one.
