Trump is genuinely popular now

This doesn't affect your point, but I just want to point out that he's NOT genuinely popular right now. He's still got a terrible approval rating. He's starting at somewhere around 47 approve, 48 disapprove. Biden was 53-30. And this is his honeymoon, he was at a similar level at the start of his first term.

This was more of a rejection of Biden/status quo than people coming around to actually like Trump.
