Not only that, but most of the ones who make the news aren't really Trump supporters. For them, Trump is just a stooge that helps them fuel the news cycle and entertain their fans, and he is a stooge who can be easily manipulated into doing stupid things-- like this government shutdown fiasco that they have him backed into. They are not his friends and he can get burned to the ground so there is nothing but ashes left of him, and they won't care. There is no compromise that he can make that they will accept. To them, he is just a stupid kid that they can taunt into doing stupid things, and then ridicule him for wanting to get out of the stupid situation that they taunted him into. He is so desperate to be an alpha male that everyone knows that they can taunt him into grabbing the electric fence to see if it is still on.
