The main reason Trump and the GOP have been polling well lately is because they have shut up about repealing health care.
That is, and always, was their most poisonous issue. The one that gets independents scared of them.

They're also riding a sugar high because the GOP base is excited that Trump will be acquitted.
But even without that, his approval would be 42-45%. It won't go down to the thirties again without another health care debacle, which is unlikely with Dems in charge of the House.

The perverse reality is, Democrats winning the House was good for the country because they were able to stop Trump's worst legislative ideas and subject him to oversight, but because it improved the national outlook, it made voters less scared of the president they're reining in.
