Olá Pessoal,

Complemento:

I have a trump card.

..."Second, even if defeated electorally, the Islamists and their regimes have a trump card: guns. Guns trump cellphones. Bang-bang beats tweet-tweet. The Sunni Awakening in Iraq succeeded because the moderates there were armed. I doubt Ahmadinejad will go peacefully."

Boa sorte!

Talvez em referência ao naipe completo, diriamos "I have trump." "Trump suit" seria o naipe escolhido (ou predeterminado pelas regras) como trunfo. "Trump card" seria a carta que ganha a jogada.

"Trump" é um substantivo e verbo. O verbo "to trump" é usado frequentemente:

This trumps all other considerations. = Isso vale mais do que todas as outras considerações.
He won the bridge hand by trumping skillfully.

Regards

I have an Ace in the hole.
