    In his timely and significant book, Washington Post reporter Isaac Arnsdorf explores the MAGA movement by shedding light on lesser-known figures who play vital roles at the grassroots level. Through the stories of individuals like the Strategist (Dan), the Enthusiast (Salleigh), and the Misfit (Kathy), he delves into their personal backgrounds and chronicles their actions following the 2020 election. This book is a captivating, enlightening, and unsettling read!

    The title of this book comes across as election-year political propaganda. It delves into Steve Bannon’s political philosophy and features profiles of dedicated supporters of the MAGA movement. The book explains the Precinct Strategy and illustrates how it has enabled the MAGA movement to gain control of Republican Party operations at both the county and state levels. This portrayal aligns with the rough-and-tumble nature of party politics that has characterized our democracy.

    The author excels in summarizing interviews and research findings related to key figures while detailing the electoral successes and failures of both MAGA and non-MAGA Republicans. However, the decision to title the book with “….Ground War to End Democracy” feels like an overreach, crossing the line from thought-provoking content into sensationalism.

    The book presents an intriguing premise but falls short in its execution. Isaac Arnsdorf traces the MAGA movement’s roots through various political eras, emphasizing individual stories. Notable moments include captivating eyewitness accounts from the January 6 Capitol Riots and perspectives from those who claim to have witnessed election fraud with mail-in ballots—claims that have since been debunked.

    Despite the compelling subject matter, the writing feels dry and resembles a book report. It is weighed down by tedious, minute-by-minute descriptions of city council meetings and details about how certain far-right figures became local GOP leaders.

    A significant flaw in the book is its lack of a cohesive narrative. It reads like a collection of scattered anecdotes under the broad theme of “MAGA extremists.” This approach misses the chance to explore the ideology behind the movement. While it’s easy to attribute the current landscape to a handful of extremists, Trump’s support among nearly half of Americans raises questions about why regular citizens also subscribe to the MAGA narrative—questions that go unaddressed.

    Additionally, the book fails to analyze what non-MAGA citizens can do to counteract these trends. It neglects to explore whether individuals should become “Precinct Chairs,” support a third party, co-opt the Democratic party, or pursue state-by-state strategies.

    The conclusion is abrupt and lacks discussion on the potential actions of Trump or the MAGA movement if he is re-elected.

    In summary, while the book is interesting, it misses critical opportunities to engage readers and raise broader questions.

    An engaging read that sometimes delves into minute details that might lose some readers’ interest. This book illustrates how democracy can falter in plain sight.

    After hearing Steve Bannon’s endorsement, I decided to check it out. Many die-hard MAGA supporters might quickly dismiss Arnsdorf’s book due to its clear acceptance of the mainstream narrative regarding the ‘steal’ and the ‘insurrection’—after all, he writes for the Washington Post! However, despite this perceived bias, the book is surprisingly straightforward and even-handed. The author quotes key figures without imposing his own commentary, allowing readers to evaluate their words independently, which is a refreshing approach in partisan political discourse. Overall, I would recommend this book as a sincere effort to document and explore the rise of the populist MAGA movement.

    This book explores the perspectives of both supporters and opponents of the MAGA movement. I was intrigued by the author’s depiction of these individuals and found it particularly engaging to learn how some interviewees arrived at their personal views on the current Republican Party. It provides insight into the varying opinions within the party.

    The author consistently leans to the left while attempting to highlight the right, suggesting a struggle to differentiate between fact and fiction.
