President Trump’s foes are hopeful that White House chaos will rid them of this turbulent president. So far, though, Americans are happier than ever that Mr. Trump’s circus is in town — and many welcome the very disruptions that make Washington insiders queasy. 

“The true New Yorker,” John Updike said, “secretly believes that people living anywhere else have to be, in some sense, kidding.” On social media, many MAGA foes are just as convinced that the 77.3 million people who voted for Mr. Trump are playing some electoral practical joke.

When asked if they voted for the latest policy outraging the political class, Mr. Trump’s supporters always say yes. On Tuesday, the host of CNN’s “Margins of Error,” Harry Enten, did “a little bit of reality check” for those clinging to this belief that Mr. Trump is losing support and on the eve of self-destruction.

“All we talk about,” Mr. Enten said, “is how unpopular Donald Trump is. But in reality, he’s basically more popular than he was at any point in term number one” or “when he won election back in November of 2024.” Mr. Trump’s net favorable, according to Mr. Enten’s polling aggregator, is minus-four points.
