You strike me as one who would lean towards long term strategies. Your fascination with accurate historic details certainly argues in that direction. You might find this approach of interest.

I very much look forward to reading it.

Also there is an error in your link. For those wishing to read the article, here is a working link.

Okay, I have read the article. The tactics listed are directed at a particular sort of opponent and it is the sort of opponent we don't have.

It is offering intellectual arguments to combat an emotional foe. The biggest problem with liberals is that they aren't motivated by reality based concepts, but instead are motivated by emotional feelings.

Reasoning with them, especially using "green eyeshade lingo" as Rush used to say, is not going to be successful. You have to argue with them using emotional tactics, in the manner that Trump does it.

They will respect an @$$whupping in a game of "the dozens", but if you try to express complex concepts, their eyes will glaze over and they will simply ignore anything you say, or even attempt to shout you down.

This book taught me a lot about the nature of human interaction.

A lot of stuff happens in human exchanges that don't register on an intellectual basis, and that is because they are primal. Trump appears to understand these human interactions on an instinctual basis.
