Answer

"I am really in love" means that you are very much in love.  The best expression is "She voted for Trump for president."  The other two phrases are a bit awkward.

Answer

You could use a phrase like "Now I'm in trouble" to express that you're actually in trouble.  Or, "I'm in real trouble now."  The phrase "I am really in trouble" has the nuance of being in big trouble.

Answer

yes If you say "I am really in love" it means you are in love and if you say "I am really in trouble" it means your in trouble but you can also say "I am in big trouble" instead in this instants

and "she voted  for trump as president" is also correct but it is very formal you can also say "she voted trump for president"
