A

The context clue in the sentence is trickery: Having seen evidence of trickery, we accept the commentator’s remarks about trickery (or chicanery). None of the other choices fits the clue in the sentence: choice B, effrontery, means boldness or nerve; choice C, subtlety, means indirectness or something suggested; choice D, solidarity, means unity; choice E, meticulousness, means extreme carefulness or precision.
