The many unpopular things Trump is doing right now

An Ipsos poll last month found that Americans opposed “proposals to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education” about 2-to-1 — 63 percent to 32 percent.

Many actions and proposals have polled remarkably poorly:

83 percent opposed Trump’s pardons of violent Jan. 6 defendants (Washington Post-Ipsos)
Around 70 percent of Americans opposed the administration’s move to rename the Gulf of Mexico the “Gulf of America” (Ipsos and Marquette University Law School)
70 percent opposed dismantling the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (Ipsos)
62 percent in one poll and 74 percent in another opposed Trump’s plan to take control of Gaza (Quinnipiac University and Ipsos)
67 percent opposed freezing funds for public health agencies (Ipsos)
As many as 65 percent opposed trying to take the Panama Canal (Marquette)
64 percent opposed his 25 percent tariffs on goods from Canada (Post-Ipsos)
60 percent in one poll and 64 percent in another opposed trying to make Canada the 51st state (Economist-YouGov and Reuters-Ipsos)
59 percent opposed his 25 percent tariffs on goods from Mexico (Post-Ipsos)
58 percent and 59 percent in two polls opposed dismantling the U.S. Agency for International Development (Ipsos and Washington Post-Ipsos)

whole picture is so insane

1. It's crazy that only 60-64% oppose making Canada the 51st state

presumably by force. That means that a solid majority of republicans must think that's a good idea.

2. yeah, it's very gross

3. On the other hand, making the West Coast states a new Canadian province

and the New England and Mid-Atlantic states into another province is starting to sound kind of nice.
