Morphology
The verb 'suck' already carries the informal sense 'to be awful/perform poorly', while 'donkey' + 'cock' functions as an obscene intensifier rather than contributing a new, non-literal meaning; a learner who knows the constituents would likely infer a very strong negative judgement (extremely bad). However, the precise nuance (humiliation vs simply performing poorly) and the highly vulgar, culture-specific register are not fully predictable, so it is only partially compositional.
Etymology
Suck donkey cock is crude slang that uses the rude words suck, donkey, and cock to make a shocking, humiliating picture. So, because the image is extreme and degrading, people use the phrase to mean 'to perform extremely poorly' or 'be thoroughly humiliated'.
