I'm willing to suspect that, in his new life as darling of the alt-right, he's flouted #9 quite a bit. I don't know enough about his personal life to review his stances on rules #1-7, 11-12.
Also, I don't think someone who sounds (and to a lesser extent looks) so much like Saul Goodman should be lecturing people about moral rectitude:
The alt-right might like him, because he argues very effectively against PC bullshit. However, I wouldn't categorize him as alt-right or even as someone who feels any connection to the alt-right. In the last video I posted above, you can very clearly see how unbiased he is, at least in the position he chooses to take.
He speaks clearly against racism-- he says racists should be put in a box and put off to the side.
The he says the same thing about those who expect equality of outcome.

I think the point of the last two is that you don't really need 12 rules.
