Can someone please explain the difference between a swing and a trend, at least for the purposes of this site? I fear I have been misusing these terms.

Thank you!

At the risk of further confusion, I tend to think of a "swing" as a one-time event, whereas a "trend" can stretch over several election cycles.

What you both said makes perfect sense, though.
