As it stands now, Trump's Approval rating is way too high and his Disapprovals too low. That is changing, however.

no matter what. However, the evidence shows otherwise. Not just this poll, but he has been slipping among Republicans in general since the start of his criminal presidency. Maybe they don't vote Democratic in 2018, but not voting hurts Team Trump/The GOP as well.

A month or so back, his support among Republicans was around the level of George W Bush right before Katrina - low 80s. With Bush, we had been in the Iraq quagmire for going on 3 years by that time. Bush had been in the mid 90s to upper 90s through his first term with Republicans.
