According to a new poll, 2/3 of Americans now support Medicare for All — & support rises to 75% when they learn about the program.

In the poll he cites, 75% support only shows up when people are told premiums and cost-sharing go away. Told about treatment delays or higher taxes, 76% and 64% oppose.
