I watch too much politics because I find it compulsive. But I want to cut back on it as I have far too much other important stuff to attend to. If Trump doesn't get in, then politics will become much more boring for me and so I'm likely spend less time on it. That is a good thing for me. Spending too much time on "expiring" information brings less to my life than spending time on information that has a longer half-life, such as learning new things (e.g. in my case, chess strategy, or home fitness routine or whatever).
