It is used to describe the act of being defeated or outdone by someone, often in a competitive or political sense. The term gained widespread use during Trump's presidency, particularly in the context of his political opponents and media figures who felt they had been "trumped" by him.

The phrase is often used in a derogatory manner, implying that the person or entity being "trumped" has been outmatched or outsmarted. It can also be used more generally to describe any situation where someone or something has been surpassed or outperformed.
