I was liberal because i had some trust in our institution, and all of them are liberal. So i was on the trump bad train for quite a while. That started to change when they started making fun of Melania's outfit and ivanka and barron . They have nothing to do with trump's action. They should not be slammed for his doing. That made me realize the left is made of horrible people. Then the rest is easy. We win because we have truth. All they do is lying. Truth always defeat lies eventually because once you see through the lie, you never go back.

I'm still what you'd call a 'classical liberal', which has more in common with the right these days than the left. It's obvious though to anyone paying attention that something is very wrong right now that is illiberal at best and it is seeded through almost all of our institutions. My red pill is much like yours. I got shit on over and over simply for not hating Trump and standing against media reports that were being dishonest about him and what he was saying. The backlash for doing so made me want to look into it more to be sure I wasn't crazy, and well... I probably am, but not because my suspicions were incorrect. Crazy times.
In the 2016 election, I went from saying things like, "Well, I don't care for him personally, but he has a right to run if the right chooses him as their candidate," to 'Hell, yes, I'm going to vote for him. You have a problem with that?"
