I must say, however, that these tactics of the far left are not surprising to me. We have their playbook: “Rules for Radicals” by Saul Alinsky. The left has been playing by his rules for decades. Hillary Clinton praised Alinksy in her thesis. President Barack Obama taught Alinsky’s tactics to grass-roots organizations in Chicago. Alinsky’s fifth rule states: “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counterattack ridicule. It infuriates the opposition, who then reacts to your advantage.” The desired immediate outcome is for those who voted for Trump to show fear and retreat.
