CNN data guru Harry Enten was astounded on Sunday after new data revealed just how little Americans think of President Donald Trump's latest stunt.

Last week, Trump signed an executive order renaming Lake Ontario Lake America as part of his ongoing trade spat with America's northern neighbor. Enten did a little digging into Google's search data and said during Sunday's broadcast of "CNN Newsroom" that the data painted a revealing picture of how Americans are thinking about the move.

"Do Americans agree with him? Are they actually now calling it Lake America?" Enten asked. "Well, the early signs are no, Americans do not, in fact, agree with President Trump."

"Since Thursday, I looked at the Google searches in all 50 states," he continued. "And guess what? In every single one of them, all 50 [states], a 50-state sweeperoo (sic), more Americans are searching for Lake Ontario."

Enten also noted that Americans have largely sided with Canada in the wake of Trump's move, as Canada's favorability rating remains well ahead of the president's.

"It's a completely different ballgame," Enten said about Trump's favorability rating compared to Canada's. "My goodness gracious! Americans far more like Canada, dare I say love Canada, than ... [they] despise the way that President Trump is dealing with Canada."

President Donald Trump has prepared an earthquake-type scheme to thwart the impact of the midterm elections if Democrats take back control of Congress, according to one White House insider.

Maggie Haberman, White House correspondent for The New York Times, argued during a new episode of "The Court of History" podcast that Trump may deploy a two-pronged scheme if Republicans suffer steep losses. On one hand, Trump could issue a number of pardons to officials who would face congressional inquiries. On the other, his administration officials would thwart any inquiries Democrats launch.

"Normally, I can look past a midterm cycle in a lame duck president's term and see generally where it's going. I look past November, and it's something of a black hole because Trump, when he feels cornered, tends to be more wild," Haberman said.
"And, I don't think we know what it looks like when an entire government doesn't respond to subpoenas."

Trump has been a focal point in the Democrats' messaging as the midterm approach, and the party has promised to impeach the president if they win back control of Congress. The president seems aware of this risk, and recently dispatched his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to meet with House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY), according to reports.

Haberman said Democrats will likely subpoena financial records of the Trump and Witkoff sons in their inquiries. They will also likely subpoena records from the various CEOs who attended Trump's inauguration, such as Amazon's Jeff Bezos and SpaceX's Elon Musk.

"He has made very clear ... that he's going to pardon any number of people who have come within a certain radius of the Oval Office," Haberman said.

While those inquiries seem commonsense, they also play right into Trump's scheme, Haberman suggested. All of the inquiries would require Trump administration officials to participate in order to proceed, and the Trump administration has already shown a propensity to disobey court orders.

"What happens if the entire Trump administration basically doesn't comply?" Haberman asked rhetorically. "Then you have contempt of Congress referrals going to Attorney General Todd Blanche. I don't really see that becoming a big rush on Blanche's part. So, I don't know what this looks like, but Trump doesn't seem especially afraid."

There's an "interesting sign" emerging after the U.S. conducted a new round of strikes against Iran on Sunday that risks spurring America's enemies to act, according to one analyst.

The U.S. launched a series of strikes against two sites on Larak Island in the Strait of Hormuz where Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps members were staging rocket launchers to attack merchant ships, according to reports. The strikes came just days after President Donald Trump called Iran a "failing nation" in a post on Truth Social.

David Sanger, a national security correspondent for The New York Times, shared his assessment of the strikes on Sunday's broadcast of "CNN Newsroom."

"I think they take it as an interesting sign, Sanger said about how America's enemies such as China and Russia reacted to the new strikes. "I think they both also see that the U.S. is now going to have to tie up considerable forces in the Persian Gulf for the foreseeable future."

Sanger also warned that the new strikes could have bitter geopolitical consequences.

"That could tempt Vladimir Putin to try to go take a small NATO country, or at least some territory in it," Sanger said. "It could tempt Xi Jinping to go after Taiwan."
