Question: Washington (CNN) 2017 is almost in the books — and so are another 12 months of public opinion polling. The calendar year that President Donald Trump spent settling into the White House has been marked by consistently low ratings from a majority of the American public. But this year also has seen new highs for the economy, growing popularity for Obamacare and widening public opinion gaps ahead of the 2018 midterm elections next year. Here are the seven most important polling trends from 2017: 1. Trump's job approval hits record-breaking lows Trump will finish his first calendar year in office with just a 35% approval rating — the lowest at this point in a new president's term stretching back to the Eisenhower administration, according to polling by CNN, CNN/ORC, CNN/USA Today/Gallup and Gallup.Trump earned the lowest first-year approval rating in seven decades of pollingMore registered voters say they plan to vote for a Democrat rather than a Republican in the midterm electionMost Americans say the Russia investigation is serious nearly a year after the election

Question: (CNN) The new moniker for President Donald Trump should be the "blamer in chief." When confronted with challenges and problems, there is nothing the President likes to do more than lash out against someone else. In his interview with the New York Times, President Trump seemed like a leader who is fed up with his job. He said he would never have appointed Attorney General Jeff Sessions, one of his longest and most loyal supporters in politics, had he known Sessions would recuse himself concerning the Russia investigation. He attacked the FBI director he fired, James Comey, as someone who had tried to intimidate him to keep his job, while saying that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's office is compromised as a result of conflicts of interest. "There are very few Republicans in Baltimore, if any," the President said about the hometown of Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who appointed Mueller special counsel to investigate the Russia matter.The President lashes out, without restraint, at anyone who doesn't fulfill his objectives, and that helps explain his failing presidency, Julian Zelizer writesTrump's attacks on Sessions, Comey and Mueller are remarkable, he writes

Answer: His refusal to be firm and resolute about what _ did wrong in meddling in the election aggravates the suspicions of a public that doesn't seem to understand why he feels so determined to be chummy with the Russian leader.
