Judges appointed by Trump I respect (7)
I believe the answer is:
umpires
'judges' is the definition.
(umpiring is a kind of judging)
'appointed by trump i respect' is the wordplay.
'appointed by' indicates a hidden word (the solution is named or designated by the clue).
'UMPIRES' can be found hidden inside 'trump i respect'.
(Other definitions for umpires that I've seen before include "Referees for cricket marches" , "Officials at cricket match" , "Officials at cricket matches" , "Sports adjudicators" , "they want fair play" .)
