He will be at a dinner I'm invited to tonight. Should be interesting.

Follow up: For my daughter, I was gracious. Politics was not discussed. I offered it up to karma. Lol.

1. Talk about things you agree on

Such as sports, food, video games, music, or whatever.

2. My rule is to be polite & nonpolitical, so as not to ruin the event.

If they don't behave as well, they get one warning, "We don't talk politics," & if they bring it up again, then all bets are off. Sorry hosts, but fascists & pedo-enablers who won't shut up need to be shamed, & if it's at your dinner table, so be it.

5. I think maybe politely leaving is the better option - (just my two cents)

And - the 'host' has failed in providing a welcoming and friendly atmosphere.
But, that's kind of their job ....
Entertaining combative personalities - means that fewer and fewer people will be attending your get togethers.

3. Well, don't start anything.

But if he starts it, you get to finish it.

My humble opinion.

4. let it be known that you anticipate a convivial and enjoyable evening

And then, if the reality delivers something else - politely excuse yourself ...
I'm almost sure I forgot to feed the goldfish ...

Polite - but firm in your expectations - and boundaries.
ALL guest should be treated with respect.
