Trump supporters, do you you ever get weary of him?

Let me say first, I agree with Trump on many things and I certainly like his "bulldog mentality" and disregard for political correctness. I believe that the media, left, and even many on the right will continue to push stories (lacking evidence) to bring his administration down.
That being said, I feel like he himself plants many of the land mines that he steps on. I don't feel like he has done much to try to at least heal the divide between him and Republicans (those republicans have failed to do this as well). I feel like he is going to undermine his own administration by openly bashing his own cabinet members, in this case, Sessions. I don't think he utilizes the members of his cabinet and their connections to try to get things done, he also doesn't utilize Pence enough. While he has a large core of supporters, he is going to alienate some of his most prominent supporters. Sessions was THE first United States Senator do endorse Trump and give him real legitimacy as a candidate. I think Trump looks through tiny pinholes and fails to see the bigger picture for why Seasions refused himself.
Point being, Trump could be a fantastic President, if he could stop providing ammunition to the media, left, etc. but I don't know that he has the ability to stop.
I'm not being an anti-Trumper here, just trying to have an honest discussion, so please refrain from stupid responses that attempt to call me some establishment or left wing nut job.

No. Because I know his heart is in the right place. I feel I can read people quite well and that's how I read Trump.

I get weary of the media.

What you call 'ammunition to the media' I have long called 'poking the monkey.' I never want it to stop. I'm having such a good time watching the media go ape shite crazy every day.

No. He has shown me no reason to second guess him. I would not bet against him.
He is fight the whole government, it's not easy.

I've been weary of the left for almost 40 years.

Nopers. But I do get weary of him being able to maintain his Cabinet and other positions - Spicer, Sessions and now talk of Tillerson wanting to move on.
Any way you cut it, it's probably tough to work in this Administration simply b/c the media is in your grill every second.

Well, depending on what image you have of the guy Seeing that he hasnt given Iran billions, or given Russian any uranium, or given the Chinese any classified server information, I am not weary in the least.
Somewhere as a country, we've decided that if we dont agree with every little thing a political figure does, then he is absolutely garbage (minus obama... he was and is still a treasonous sack of shite). Does Trump do everything I want, no, not even close. Is he trying to reduce government influence on my every day life? I actually believe he is.
Sadly, the left is to butthurt and busy feeling fluid to understand what is actually relevant to the rest of the world.

No. I actually want to see his agenda be put forth and see if it works or not I just don't want to see the Democrats obstruct everything he does.

Yeah I get more weary of adults who are smitten with and beholden to him than I do Trump himself
That mentality is pretty disturbing

frick the establishment. He ran his campaign of frick all of them. It's why he won.
I'd be furious if he got elected and became buddies with gbem

Never.
Trump is the only thing keeping my hope and faith in the US government alive.
