1. "Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have. Power is derived from 2 main sources – money and people. 'Have-Nots' must build power from flesh and blood."
2. "Never go outside the expertise of your people."
3. "Whenever possible go outside the expertise of the enemy."
4. "Make the enemy live up to its own book of rules."
5. "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. There is no defense. It’s irrational. It’s infuriating. It also works as a key pressure point to force the enemy into concessions."
6. "A good tactic is one your people enjoy."
7. "A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag."
8. "Keep the pressure on."
9. "The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself. Imagination and ego can dream up many more consequences than any activist."
10. "The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition."
11. "If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside. Violence from the other side can win the public to your side because the public sympathizes with the underdog."
12. "The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative."
13. "Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. Cut off the support network and isolate the target from sympathy. Go after people and not institutions; people hurt faster than institutions."
I’ll see your rules for radicals and raise you a prairie fire:

About two decades too late to have an impact. Fair elections are a thing of the past.
Trump uses these rules all the time

We let the cancer spread untreated. Now it has metastasized.
A cure now will be highly invasive, painful and debilitating.
Rules For Americans!

I agree with you. This “making of lists” that many on the left are advocating (see AOC), I think we should make some lists, too. I do not mean lists of people, which is the act of a totalitarian. I think we should start immediately paying attention to which companies, organizations, and retailers back the emerging leftist movement. Publish this as an active list, and begin systematically boycotting them. For example, leave all leftist social media sites (Twitter, Facebook, etc.).
I’m talking about a virtual secession. Geographical borders will not change, but financial and social borders are redrawn.
No.
It’s over.
We will never win an election again.
They won’t let us.
Trump used these rules-their very own rules!-against them and won.
They hate him for it.
Ask the NBA.
Good ol’ boys knew how to make the enemy live up to the rules of the good ol’ boys. That worked for thousands of years against the likes of Alinsky. The one requirement is that the good ol’ boys must try to live up to their own rules by avoiding becoming spoiled and selfish.
