Is The Day After Worth Reading?

by Brian Tyler Cohen

Ada’s Score

How does Ada score books? →

Brian Tyler Cohen examines how Republicans and Democrats relate to power and prescribes ways for it to be used after Trump's presidency. The book leans on the author's fluency as a political commentator, moving briskly through partisan strategy. Its prescriptions, however, often read as extensions of the author's video segments rather than sustained argument. The evidence stays thin where a book of this ambition needs depth.

Rating: 3.6 / 5

Ada’s reservations

The polemic preaches to the converted and mistakes conviction for evidence, thinning past the opening chapters; the persuadable and the analytical will both leave unsatisfied. Punditry bound between covers.

Ada’s score reflects both strengths and reservations.
