Notice the author's clever transition from an interesting factual narrative to her hardcore imaginary anti-Trump propaganda. She cleverly slips Trump and his supporters in the story as the villains and then ends with a very funny comment about Americans having greater fear for math than than for foreigners. Her jarring accusation against Trump and his supporters is softened with a little humor making it a little more palatable. Rising xenophobia stoked by the presidential campaign, he suggested, may soon make things worse for people who happen to look a little other-ish. “What might prevent an epidemic of paranoia? It is hard not to recognize in this incident, the ethos of [Donald] Trump’s voting base,” he wrote. In this true parable of 2016 I see another worrisome lesson, albeit one also possibly relevant to Trump’s appeal: That in America today, the only thing more terrifying than foreigners is…math.
