PLAYBOOK: How 8 Groupings can Resist TrumpElon

Other Leaders/ Civil servants& Military / MAGA voters / Labour Unions / Blue States / The Media / Tech Competitors / Scientists & Environmentalists

Trump likes to isolate his victims and bully them as we saw him try with Zelenzkyy. He tries to blast in all directions at once, not caring who he hurts or how they are affected.

Individual groupings have their own vulnerabilities and strengths. The key is coordinated resistance, refusing to comply with illegal orders, and exposing corruption. But these individual groups do have to use different tactics to firstly triage effects to survive, blocks to prevent retaliation and finally advantages to use to get back on an even keel.

However - Resistance is not the same as violence, armed struggle, riots or revolution. It’s important that resistance be CIVIL DISOBEDIENCE rather than anything that gives an excuse for

AAA FOREIGN LEADERS: ALLY WITH THOSE YOU CAN TRUST

Zelenskyy showed the way -

NEVER:

• Sell out your country to enrich Trump or the USA

• Trust Trump promises or belief in the word of dictators - Putin repeatedly breaks agreements, always has and always will

• Rely on the US as an ally or a peace broker

1. Collaborate with like minded countries and build your own defences and alliances. Be prepared for the US to back out and not support.

2. Specifically take actions to demonstrate to the Bully Boys their actions are back firing, for example cancelling arms orders and replacing them with orders from reliable allies

3. Above all stand up for your country and Ukraine; act like a statesman with serious intent of solving conflicts in a just and secure way.

BBB US CIVIL SERVANTS & MILITARY LEADERS: STAY AND RESIST ILLEGAL ORDERS

Resigning in principle is all good and well but it’s an empty gesture with these thugs. You will be fired, it’s just a matter of when and how much damage you can recent. The main issue is implementing or following illegal Executive Orders or instructions from above.

1. Is it an illegal order?-If you are faced with an order you think may be illegal, first protect yourself by getting legal advice

2. Defer Compliance - If it comes back as an illegal order just put compliance with it to the side and take no action except to share the advice with your direct reports

3. Delay Compliance- If you are eventually asked why you haven’t complied, take your time and reply that you tried but were blocked, sharing the advice. Eventually, try requesting a form of the order that can pass the advice.

4. Don’t Resign - You may be reordered to comply or resign. Eventually reply that you wish to comply with a modified order and resignation is not required if you don’t.

5. You will be summarily dismissed - but that is going to happen sooner or later. Make sure you have gathered all supporting evidence that you have been fired without cause. Make sure you start this well beforehand.

6. Litigate - Start a court proceeding for an injunction against dismissal without cause and for being ordered to take an illegal action.

7. Persevere - Hang in there as long as you can and block as much as you can. You won’t win but you can delay, deflect and eventually defend for as long as possible

CCC RED STATE MAGA VOTERS: YOUR HIT IS COMING … PROTEST ASAP

1. Expect to Suffer- The actions of Musks DOGE in particular are excessive, unjustified and hurt many MAGA voters in ways you never imagined

2. Identify vulnerabilities - Don’t wait until you get hit. These could be any of:

• Loss of Medical insurance cover through Medicare or ACA.

• Loss of Govt jobs

• ICE arresting and deporting family members

• Suffering under Cost of living increases and losing homes

• Tax increases to fund billionaires cuts

• Veterans losing disability or other support

• Anyone with a minority aspect be they gay, black, Hispanic, immigrant or other targeted group

3. Club together - Find like minded MAGA people and form groups to protest and fight DOGE actions in each of these areas

4. SAMP Congressmen- Identify your Red States Congressmen and swamp their offices and town halls with protest material, telling them you expect them to stand up for MAGA Voters

DDD BLUE STATE DEMOCRAT VOTERS: ENSURE YOUR GOVERNOR IS BUILDING DEFENSES

Trump and his allies will target blue states through economic pressure, federal funding cuts, and legal maneuvers. Governors and state legislatures must prepare in advance.

1. Legal Firewalls – State attorneys general should be prepped to file injunctions against unconstitutional executive orders, just as they did under Trump’s first term. Ensure your state is ready to litigate immediately.

2. State-Level Protections – Strengthen state laws protecting abortion rights, voting access, and LGBTQ+ rights to prevent federal overreach.

3. Financial Independence – Reduce reliance on federal funding where possible. Consider state reserves or new revenue streams to maintain services if federal cuts target blue states.

4. Interstate Alliances – Build coalitions with other blue states to collectively resist federal policies. Examples include compacts on climate policy, gun control, or immigration protection.

5. Public Resistance – Mobilize protests and direct action campaigns when Trump-aligned forces attempt to undermine blue states.

6. Sanctuary Policies – Strengthen protections for immigrants and vulnerable communities to resist federal crackdowns.

EEE THE MEDIA: CUT THROUGH THE DISTRACTIONS

Trump and Musk thrive on chaos and misinformation. The press must be disciplined in its coverage.

1. Stop Amplifying Lies – Journalists should report on Trump’s claims but not simply repeat them. Debunk falsehoods in real-time.

2. Investigate the Corruption – Focus on Trump’s financial dealings, abuses of power, and policy failures instead of just the daily spectacle.

3. Expose Musk’s Manipulations – Highlight how Musk uses Twitter, stock manipulation, and government subsidies for personal gain.

4. Give More Voice to the Affected – Center the voices of people harmed by their policies, not just political pundits.

FFF LABOUR UNIONS: STRIKE AND PROTEST

Trump and Musk are both anti-union and pro-corporate greed. Workers must resist actively.

1. Organize Strikes – If Trump returns to power and attacks labor rights, strikes will be necessary.

2. Boycott & Public Pressure – Encourage consumers to avoid companies that align with their policies.

3. Legislative Lobbying – Push state and local governments to protect workers against federal rollbacks on labor rights.

4. Tech & Auto Worker Resistance – Musk’s companies, including Tesla and SpaceX, must be unionized to fight back against exploitation.

GGG SCIENTISTS & ENVIRONMENTALISTS: BLOCK CLIMATE DISASTER

A second Trump presidency is accelerating climate destruction. Scientists and activists must resist.

1. Whistleblower Actions – Leak documents showing government cover-ups of climate damage.

2. State & Local Climate Action – Push states and cities to enforce green policies despite federal rollbacks.

3. Direct Action – Climate protests, lawsuits, and corporate pressure campaigns must intensify.

4. Public Education – Combat climate denialism with aggressive fact-based campaigns.

HHH TECH USERS & ADVERTISERS: STRANGLE MUSK’S PLATFORMS

Musk’s power stems from his control over Twitter/X and other tech ventures. His influence can be undermined.

1. Mass Platform Abandonment – If Twitter/X becomes a full propaganda machine, high-profile users should leave and encourage others to do the same.

2. Ad Boycotts – Pressure major brands to stop advertising on Musk-controlled platforms.

3. Push for Antitrust Action – Advocate for breaking up Musk’s monopolistic power over tech industries.

4. Decentralized Alternatives – Support independent, decentralized platforms that can replace Musk’s influence.
