I don’t think he was always like this. His earlier books (pre 1990) are a lot more moderate whenever politics comes up.

He was always a liberal, but like the others, he's been wagged (wag the dog). I re-read The Firestarter just three years ago, and it was full of paranoia about secret government experiments and conspiracies, and the CIA was the bad guy, and corporate media was the bad guy, and Rolling Stone was the only magazine you could trust. Now? Now suddenly he's playing along with the MSM and the CIA! It's amazing how many liberals have been guided right into line.

It's probably why they thought over at FOX that they could do the same thing to conservatives.

The Left "got smart" and figured out, "If you can't beat them, join them". And now they have complete control over all of those institutions, so now the script has been flipped.
