[1] If your message only works when shouted, you won’t persuade me.

I see plenty of ALL CAPS republicans.

[2] If you reflexively ignore or reject what I say, you won’t persuade me.

Well, that is a two-way street.

[3] If you use the F-word and the N-word to describe your adversaries, you won’t persuade me.

So all of Trump's name-calling... needs to go away, right?

[4] If you fail to condemn political violence in absolute, unalloyed terms, you won’t persuade me.

Two words: January 6

[5] If you psychoanalyze your adversaries, you won’t persuade me.

How about the experts? Do you believe THEM?

[6] If you can’t separate everyday life from political life, you won’t persuade me.

Again, DT brings everyday life into his "discussions" all the time.

[7] If you traffic in disproven accusations

DT dismisses PROVEN information.

[8] If your messaging consists of synchronized, transitory memes, you won’t persuade me.

How about dropping DT's childish, insulting nicknames for people?

[9] If you vilify masses of voters, you won’t persuade me.

Oh, I agree, but there's certainly plenty of vilification coming from the Oval Office.

[10] If you lack empathy for your adversaries, that will be obvious, and you won’t persuade me.

Empathy for a guy talking about grocery prices who has never stepped foot into a store and shopped? He makes broad-sweeping statements about middle America that are anything but empathetic.

[11] If you don’t understand your adversaries’ mindset, you won’t persuade me.

Sorry, I will never understand racism, the attacks on women's independence and knowledge, the looking down at the little people because they are poor or disabled or challenged.

[12] If your nominee can’t persuade your own voters, then you probably can’t persuade me.

If your nominee makes grandios statements about landslides and huge crowds, you probably can't persuade me
