But the support from millionaires, some of whom would presumably pay the tax, shows that some millionaires are willing to accept higher taxes amidst growing concern over inequality and soaring fortunes of the rich.

There's really not much else to discuss because there's no telling how many of those people would be effected. That's the first and easiest part of this.
It's really just common sense. People want taxes higher on rich people as long as rich is defined as one dollar more than they make.
Remember all those billionaires that promised money for Notre Dame? Saw an article today that not one has actually donated. Probably just a delay. It's probably not because they're having second thoughts on what they said.
Again, it's just that easy. This is paint by number. You don't have to be a genius to understand how people act with their money.
