A quick 5 second check shows me that you live in /r/politics where its basically a left leaning echo chamber. These parties you go to might not be left leaning echo chambers, people that voted for Trump are probably at that party and the last thing they want to deal with is politics at a fucking party.
Here's a better example that doesn't involve politics but its the same thing, imagine you're having dinner with a group of people and then someone decided to talk about how they are a vegan and how everyone in the group is a shitty person for eating meat. Lets say you were one of those people, would you really want to be around this person? This is literally the same type of person in the picture.
Honestly I think it would be hilarious if more people dress up as Trump supporters for Halloween and watch them get assaulted by their own side.

There's your problem, everything is driven by emotion. That's why hate sells so well. While I don't support Biden or Trump I'm always fascinated how a entire website can lean so heavily to one side and a lot of people are oblivious to it but its because hate sells so well. The whole "its ok to do it to them because they are bad" is not a good look.
For example right now, this picture that's clearly anti trump as well as a picture of Elon Musk and Trump with Ghislaine Maxwell are all sitting on the front page of /r/pics even tho the 2 pictures of Ghislaine are old as fuck. If you look at the comments its nothing but hate.
