Minimal change from May (54% supported and 28% opposed). I predict about a 70-30 vote in favor.

Unfortunately, it's nothing new. He has been very successful in running mostly solid General Election polling, and then he puts out the usual right-leaning issues polling hoping to get ahead of the curve and influence policy.
It works perfectly for him because Fox News continually uses his polling. But these days we have SO much polling that his distorted results won't gain any traction in the MSM.
Doesn't make it any less funny to watch though. :)
