I think we have some slippage of concepts here. The majority of voters want tighter restrictions, but only half agree with Trump's position on a ban on Muslim migration.

From the article you linked:

While 71 percent of Republican voters supported the ban

I don't believe any other Republican has supported the ban, so that the issue is an overwhelming win for Trump in the Republican Party.

Yup, agreed it's a win for him in the Republican party.
