In besieged Idlib, young Syrians say Trump is the only person who can save them

In Syria’s Idlib province, residents fear the worst humanitarian crisis in eight years of war.

Nick Schifrin reports on how Idlib residents, U.S. interfaith leaders and lawmakers are pushing for President Trump to step in.
