What do you see that makes you believe he is getting more and more popular?

It's a good question.
I don't agree that Republicans were always going to vote for him anyway. Never Trump is still alive inside the Republican party - but they consistently lose ground, which is one indicator to me that Trump himself is becoming more popular. Republicans that were in a hurry to distance themselves from him before are not doing it now. They must assume he is gaining in popularity.
My opinion of his rising popularity may also be my personal Trump supporting timeline. I didn't care much about him one way or the other until mid last year and my actual support once I realized what was happening in the world began around Sept/Oct of last year so if you look at this graph:

From where I enter the picture, it looks like he is only getting more popular as people get to know him and disregard the media bias. You have acknowledged previously that you've never seen media bias like this before - it's insane. And sure, he brings much it on himself with the trolling he enjoys so much- but this is certainly not journalism we've been witnessing.
