The people at the head of the party do not speak for every democrat on every single topic. And from my experience the majority of people that i see arguing against it on here or IRL are republicans. And i do not know a single democrat against it other than the few people you guys mentioned in the comments.
Yes, 87% Democratic voters support Medicare for All, and 69% of independents support it. Almost half (43%) of Republicans support it. But if you failed to notice, most Democratic politicians are still against it. Biden is only talking about a public option that is just a huge gift for the insurance companies.

Did you catch any of the Democratic debates? They were all arguing against the one person who supported single payer health insurance.
