Blindly supporting him is like letting a bad employee you like keep doing what they are doing that is going to get them fired.

A true friend would tell them.

Doesn't seem like anyone will tell Trump (anyone that he'll listen to ie his base).

JJ, if you follow the reports of his intimates, and the notes of WH observers, you'll see that people who demand Trump "get it together " don't last long. He doesn't have "true friends."  He has fixers and yes men. And people who know how to play him.  He demands completely loyalty but doesn't return it. Honorable people resign, or decline offered positions. Yes men and party hacks step up to fill the gaps. The last person out of the room has Trump's ear.

Trump supporters call these descriptions of Trump's interaction with his staff and cabinet members "fake news" from unnamed sources.

Then Trump himself treats us to press conferences in which cameras go round the room as various people speak of what an honor it is to work with the amazing Trump.  And there is more WH turnover than any previous administration, and more leaks, which come from disgruntled and humiliated staffers battling one another for Trump's attention or trying to displace someone else. All amidst daily tweets insulting "enemies" and stating, then reversing policy positions, and making up facts.

Dysfunction from the top down.  And those who warn us are the enemy of the people.  As we stand on the brink of war.
