A modification of Hanlon's razor; to attribute both malice and stupidity when explaining one's behavior.
Hanlon's razor advises not to attribute malice to a behavior when it could be reasonably explained by stupidity - Trump's razor advises attributing both.

"Supporters of 47th President Trump cheered on as he promised tariffs, thinking it would harm the target nations and boost the US's economy. Both assumptions are incorrect and based in a lack of understanding of tariffs and harmful intent - hence another example of Trump's razor." - MSNBC, probably.

Get the trumpmug. When MAGA conservatives use their support for Trump to scare others and avoid consequences for something bad they've said or done.
MAGA: You're only firing me because I voted for Trump!
Boss: Don't try to pull the Trump card on me! You're being fired because you took a bath in the kitchen sink!
MAGA: LIBERAL SCUM!!!!!!!!!!

Get the Trump Hotelmug. Australian Slang
Relevant to card games.
A trump is a playing card which is elevated above its usual rank in trick-taking games. Typically, an entire suit is nominated as a trump suit; these cards then outrank all cards of plain (non-trump) suits.
Any sort of action, authority, or policy which automatically prevails over all others.
So, being surprised (or "shitting yourself") made that the immediate prevailing thought above all others.
