Please. Nobody wants Trump to win more than I.
If I criticize the head coach, it’s not because I am rooting for the other team.
Consider this:
In your analogy the quarterback is the coach and the quarterback is listening to his "experts" high in the stadium. Let's assume those experts are well-versed in the game and have all current relevant information. The quarterback calls the play and the huddle breaks.
At that point, given the finite number of players on a team, you either support the call or you act to defeat it; and the latter includes criticizing the call and/or walking off the field. And whatever you do may influence the spectators.

Hey - I got grief yesterday for posting “what is this bullshit!?” when he started giving his speech, and it was only the last line of it that saved the whole thing for me.
It’s not that people criticize President Trump that bothers me - not at all, because I do so myself often enough (like his choice of FBI director and Attorney General, for instance), but it’s the “chicken little” tone of a lot of people who sound like they’re just happy as hell at every little set back - not upset by it, that disturbs me. I guess some people just want that glass to be half-empty, no matter what, so they can justify being miserable.
