Trojans are the name of a brand of condoms so when Yeezy says 300 bitches, where the Trojans? He means he plans on having sex with 300 bitches and needs condoms

First of all, in the context of the song, it makes perfect sense. Kanye is saying he's 300 - in Latin, 300 is CCC. Standing for Cool Calm Collected. Like the Romans, he doesn't let things get to him and he knows he's a God.
It also carries a second meaning.
"Trapped in a theater like Hitler"... as you may already know, in real life, Hitler was never actually trapped in a theater. He died in a bunker. Kanye is referencing the movie "Inglorious Bastards". Kanye isn't referencing real life, he's referencing the media's version of real life.
Another line goes like "300 like the Romans..." Now, he's referencing another movie loosely based on real life, "300". In real life, the forces of the 300 didn't belong to the Romans, it belonged to Greece. He's deliberately mistaking reality for his own version of it.
Kanye deliberately referenced two historical events, that had famous movies based on them, and referenced the media's version of these real events, as opposed to what actually happened. By doing so, Kanye is making an extended metaphor on how real life can be altered by the media, a concept which correlates to his own life (how the media perceives him as an ****, etc).
By doing so, Kanye is making his own version of REALITY with this song. These themes may be extended within the album. Since he calls himself a God in "I Am God", the album might be about his own shaping of reality. His version of the world, since he is a god. During "Black Skinhead", since he is God, he can alter reality and perceive it the way he wants to.
All the movie references actually have a bigger meaning. He's talking about how the media (ie movies) can alter the perception of things. The King Kong line is a reference to how the media perceives his relationship with Kim. They portray him as the giant ape, trying to kidnap the white woman. In addition:

(contd)
There's always a sense of unease and fantasy - dark fantasy - in his work. This is because it's Kanye basically creates his own reality juxtaposed against the western narrative proposed by the media. It's like a symbol for Hegelian dialectic, the dichotomy. New Slaves presents this a bit more clearly.
