One of my wife's high school friends wanted to take algebra at a junior college. She bought the Shaum's outline for Modern Algebra, and asked my wife if I could help her a little. I don't think that she had more than on course of introductory algebra. I explained that what she wanted was "College Algebra", not this book, and told her to take it back. She didn't want to deal with a return, so she gave it to me.
I think that someone like Trump would appeal to "old-fashioned" algebra. By the way, this is the best that I can do in the area of math humor.
