          Denote by $mu$ the associated probability measure, i.e. $$psi(t) = int e^{ixt} , mu(dx).$$



          Since



          $$|psi(t)-psi(s)|^2 = int (sin(tx)-sin(sx))^2 , mu(dx) + int (cos(tx)-cos(sx))^2 , mu(dx)$$



          it follows from



          $$sin u- sin v = 2 cos frac{u+v}{2} sin frac{u-v}{2} qquad cos u - cos v = - 2 sin frac{u+v}{2} sin frac{u-v}{2}$$



          that



          $$|psi(t)-psi(s)|^2 leq 4 int sin^2 frac{(t-s)x}{2} , mu(dx).$$



          As



          $$sin^2(u) = frac{1}{2} (1-cos(2u))$$



          this gives



          $$|psi(t)-psi(s)|^2 leq 2 int (1-cos((t-s)x)) , mu(dx) = 2 |1-text{Re} , psi(t-s)|;$$



          in particular,



          $$|psi(t)-psi(s)|^2 leq 2 |1-psi(t-s)|.$$
