They equate that with meaningful action on his part. Since the results of what actions he is actually taking have yet to hurt them, and since they are impervious to the circus sideshow at this point, they assume he is doing well in the job. Reality will eventually bring those numbers down.

If you read the article closely, it is clear that Trump's popularity is unusually low for a President this early in their term. Also, Trump's disapproval rate is higher than his approval rate, so he is underwater. His popularity is high for Trump, but low when compared to other Presidents going back to Eisenhower.
