It is unpopular because the average employee being laid off will have had much less influence than a CEO on the reasons that ultimately led to the (necessary) measure, but he/she will be the one facing the consequences.
The worst that can happen to unsuccessful CEOs is being replaced (IF the situation does not improve after the layoffs) while netting a generous severance pay.
I agree that rationally such backlash it's unreasonable, but humans are not rational beings, especially when perceiving something as unfair.

And then run for office touting your hugely successful time as CEO, just make sure you have enough money to run enough ads to support this claim rather than the realities that are your failures.
