I was liberal in college too.
When you start paying bills and taxes, have kids and a wife, you go to the right. When you see the world a bit more, get divorced, marry again, and you reach your 40s, you start swaying a bit back to the middle. Then it is a coin flip daily. Some people, a tad more conservative, others to the left.
In the grand scheme of things . . . it really doesn't have much to do with your life unless you let it. so, stop letting it.
My solution: Stop watching the news and delete news apps and twitter (dumb anyway) off your phone, only visit Facebook - and other forms of social media - once a week. Go fishing and leave your phone in the car. Go to a bar with your buddies and leave your phone in the car. Go out on a date with your kids and your wife/girlfriend AND LEAVE YOUR PHONE IN THE CAR. Get your mind off this shite - which isn't very important to begin with - and live your life.
