Trim/Pattern issue
You will have to break\delete the pattern if you need to trim objects in the pattern. Just select the pattern icon and delete. By the way if you are just going to extrude those shapes you don't have to trim you could just select all the closed profiles in the extrude.

Hi @DWolfanger
This is not a bug. When you use Pattern or Copy, all the objects/sketches are connected to each other. Which is why you couldn't trim the circle, one set of circles had two points for the trim, but other set didn't, so trim cannot happen only in one circle!
The best way of using Pattern, it's on objects. You can create one set of circles and them Mirror them.
If you need more help, please let me know.
Cheers / Ben

I many CAD systems you need to trim sketch element to create one closed profile as a sketch can only be used one operation e.g. to create one extrusion from it.
In Fusion 360 in many cases trimming is not really necessary. The reason for this is that you can use a sketch for several extrusions at the same time.
The animation below first shows a traditional sketch and extrusion and then second how the sen be done in Fusion.
