Not contradictory. Just different from your everyday experience. 

> No trajectory means, it isn’t moving in any direction?

No, that’s not what it means. A trajectory means that at any time t, you
can tell me where it is with coordinates x, y, z, and therefore you can
track its location through time. Electrons are moving but you cannot follow
a trajectory. You know they are moving for several reasons. One of them is
that we can measure their kinetic energy. 

> Kinetic energy means, parts are spinning, perhaps?

No. Translational kinetic energy is different than rotational kinetic
energy. Don’t confuse them.

Not at all. Wrong direction. Off the road and into the weeds.
