> Trump still enjoys higher than 50% popularity,

No, he does not. The latest polls show him taking a significant hit on his popularity, which hasn't been above 50% for quite a while anyway.

As of yesterday 46% approve of the job he is doing [1] so not quite 50% but not far below it. Unless it drops to around 20% GOP senators aren't going to be emboldened to oppose Trump and without GOP senators you can't get a veto-proof majority.
