Biden has very similar numbers, so would you say he's "so popular?"

Because he loves his country and is proud of it, and people are sick of woke self-loathing and liberal guilt. Because he wants America to have a strong military, but one used for deterrence, not engaging in pointless, endless foreign wars without clear, attainable objectives. Because be believes in traditional ideas of masculinity and femininity, just like everyone did until day before yesterday, and he's pushing back against wokeness and the gender cult. Because he understands that strong leadership from the United States makes the world more ordered and safer, and weak leadership, like we had under Biden, emboldens foreign autocrats and leads to more aggression from them, undermining world stability. Because he understands that when leaders apologize for America, or appease autocrats, the bad actors of the world don't see it as generosity or magnanimity, and then reciprocate with concessions; they see it as weakness and they become more aggressive and more dangerous. Because he has become an adversary (and a target) of a corrupt, effete, arrogant, and incompetent ruling class that started wars it has not won, presided over a declining economy and ballooning debt, made life more expensive, raised taxes without giving us any benefit from it, and lied to and gaslighted the American people, while talking down to them and sneering at them as "deplorables" and "garbage."

And this is just for starters.
