Pessimistic Satirical Look At Politics For The Millennial And Younger Crowds. First, let me address why I specifically say this is for the younger crowds: Every chapter ends with an image that, in the print edition at least, is a coloring sheet. Yes, you read that right. This is, partially and only in the print edition, a coloring book. Even the last text section before the coloring sheet is a suggestion of how you might want to color it, based on the image at hand and the commentary of that particular chapter.
As to the actual text, it is exactly what I said above - a satirical, if perhaps a touch pessimistic, look at all things politics, including how so many stereotypical politicians act so much of the time. Which means that at least in a certain vein, it absolutely does ease political stress with a bit of humor - if perhaps landing a touch close to one's actual views of the subject.
The coloring sheets, while infantilizing - arguably one of the *last* things we need to be doing with this set of younger adults (to be clear, including those of even my own Xennial generation) - are at least a solid attempt at humor whose landing will depend more on personal taste.
Overall a fun, light, funny-enough book that never takes itself to seriously and is in fact a good way to try to have a laugh.
Very much recommended.
