...around them. That has always been my goal. For example, I have an old close-friend that was our GOP mayor and the borough president here in a heavy red county in SC-PA. When I joke with him about politics, I'm not aiming my comments at him but rather at the people who always gather around him/us when we talk. I've used that method, to change at least a few minds over the years who have told me that I have changed their votes. Then, I stand back and feel honored and let the person know how I feel.

Works like a charm. Just takes years!
