(Commentary. (Apologies for the misuse of 'reigning' in earlier versions.):)
An uncontrolled, impulsive, unthinking, chaotic, rouge president?
(Add: Historically unpopular. (News story links:) http://time.com/5103776/donald-trump-approval-rating-graph/, https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/on-leadership/wp/2018/01/18/one-year-in-to-trumps-presidency-the-worlds-citizens-give-u-s-leadership-a-record-low-rating/)

Reining-in Trump: At this point it's apparent that we cannot rely upon U.S. Republicans -- currently in control of both houses of Congress -- or the revolving cadre of White House staffers and advisors -- to do the necessary job....(Oh, and this other dude↓ obviously is completely worthless for the task..:)
(YT video link. No copyright claimed or intended.)
The primary suggested "remedy" here is to elect many more Democrats to national office, as soon as possible. Beginning with the 2018 mid-term elections. (Please VOTE!)
...Perhaps the more-sane among us can gain a "foothold" by at least turning one house of Congress into a better "check" upon rogue President Trump.
Also, please keep saying some prayers that Special Counsel Mueller et al remain both able and willing to follow the money, the Russians, whatever and whoever...and get their job(s) done. Soon (we hope).Update/comment, ref. above: Pretty good↓...though it's hard (for me) to stomach watching "The (Really Dumb) Bachelor" even in parody:

My remaining suggestion - at this point - involves steps described in the following link.
Sign me up for that team, pronto. (I'm certain many ready- and willing-volunteers are available...):

(Brief excerpt, emphasis added:)
"2.) Have a plan.
Once everyone is there, huddle up and decide exactly what your going to do and when you’re going to do it. Who’s going to lay hands on the patient first? Who’s second?
A whole bunch of people won’t do you much good if nobody knows what they’re doing. I assign people to limbs. You grab his left arm, you control his right leg, I’ll control his head. If were talking about someone big, assign two people to each limb. Don’t forget to assign a floater to hold the pram and fasten the straps.
This should go without saying but, once you have a job, do your job. Trust the other folks on the team to do their job......"

P.S. ...Something to consider (ref. articles below) for those "happy" with "Trump's economy". (It's really also Obama's, BTW -- though no president alone "rules" the U.S. economy...):
