Thank you, John. In addition to your excellent points, Bell's data were misleading— of the 1.1M international students in the US, 50% are grad students (lots of them in STEM fields where domestic applicants have been slim the past decades).
For undergraduates across US institutions, internationals are 5% of students — hardly a massive horde crowding out domestics
Trump wants to position right wing conservatives in key political, administrative and scientific positions to reach cause a long term and sustainable right Conservative shift in key societal areas, including science. Those he cannot bully or "commie scare" out of the way is lured with money and prestige - sufficient in the US for most - even scientists. Every scientists not directly and actively exposing and protesting this is complicit.
If this succeeds, US science will loose credibility for decades.
