"Set a trap (for someone or something)" = Đặt bẫy ai/cái gì nhằm bắt họ hoặc biết điều gì đó về họ.

Ví dụ
Even while knowing that Senate Republicans would acquit Trump, Pelosi set a trap for Trump and his obsequious (dễ bảo, vâng lời, khúm núm) Republican supporters on Capitol Hill. Lacking Pelosi’s inner confidence and skill at three-dimensional political chess, Trump and Congressional Republicans fell into Pelosi’s clever trap.

Modern civilization (sự văn minh, nền văn minh hiện đại) has set a trap for itself, as ever more complex technologies are deployed at an accelerating rate. Every second, billions of devices, protocols (nghi thức ngoại giao, lễ tân), ideas, traditions, and people interact around the world. The resulting increase in complexity poses a huge and possibly unmanageable challenge.

Kate (formerly Kitty) Pryde is the leader of the Marauders, and a recent addition to the Hellfire Trading Company's Inner Circle. Emma Frost recruited Kate to be the Inner Circle's Red Queen, with Bishop serving as the Red Bishop. Emma's power-play greatly upset the Black King, Sebastian Shaw, which caused him to set a trap for Kate. She ultimately drowned after being tied up, with the Marauders unaware of what transpired.
