I doubt any government has ever gotten that unpopular. Even when the American colonies rose up against King George, there were those here who were in the good graces of the King or of the British East India Company who took their side. They were called Loyalists.
Much of the anger and angst about government in the USA today is misplaced. It largely comes from a something-for-nothing crowd who want all the benefits they currently get from government but no taxes, and keep voting to get that. Then they are outraged that there is a big national debt.
