Ditch a prohibition by Trump (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

abandon

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ditch' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'a prohibition by trump' is the wordplay.
'prohibition' becomes 'ban' (synonyms).
'by trump' becomes 'don' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'a'+'ban'+'don'='ABANDON'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for abandon that I've seen before include "Kick" , "Czech city" , "Cast aside" , "Walk out on" , "Total lack of inhibition (often gay?)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
