United States Majority of Polled Americans Now Desire National Guard/Military to Ongoing Crush Riots

Can you find the source of those polls?
It's here.
If I learned anything from the 2016 election, it's that polls are often inaccurate, usually misleading, and always completely useless without knowing the methodology of the poll in question. Who did they poll, when did the poll take place, where did the poll take place, what question were asked of those polled; any one of those factors, and more besides, could drastically influence the result of the poll.

The poll includes a table of respondent data at the end. Looking through it, here's a few important figures:
  • 81% of respondents marked themselves as "white."
  • 30% were evangelicals.
  • 25% from rural areas.
Each of these percentages is not representative of the general population ( about 60.4%, 25%, and 17.8% respectively). While I don't know exactly how Morning Consultant conducts their polls, the data collected here is obviously pretty shaky.
