As President Trump ruminates on a long-term role for the U.S. in Venezuela, The Atlantic's David Frum argues that Trump's critics are falling into an "obvious trap." In a new essay, Frum warns that opponents of the administration are bogged down in the legalities of the military operation. He joins Michele Martin to explain why he believes their message is failing to break through.

Love, peace and shelter.
