We so need a Harry Potter right now.

We need something on the better side of a miracle.

Frodo failed, Trump has the ring!

If he does, it'll eat him the same way it ate Smeagol before betraying him to his doom.

After how many years?! Not an acceptable option, sadly.

Awell, maybe the same way it got Isildur, then. That didn't take too long.

The Ring came to the creature Trump, who took it deep into the tunnels of the Alt-Net. And there it consumed him. The ring brought to Trump unnatural long life. For five hundred years it poisoned his mind, and in the gloom of Trump's man-cave, it waited. Darkness crept back into the forests of the world. Rumor grew of a shadow in the East, whispers of a nameless fear, and the Ring of Power perceived its time had now come. Trump carried the ring to the White House where it waited for its true master to arrive.

Bannon's there already, though, and he does not share power.

I thought it ran Isildur for at least a few years.

You're right; it did indeed: Isildur cut it from Sauron's hand at the Siege of Barad-dur (http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/s/siegeofbaraddur.html) in the year 3441 of the Second Age, and it slipped from his hand into the river Anduin after the Disaster of the Gladden Fields (http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/d/disasterofthegladdenfields.html) in Autumn of the second year of the Third Age.

Thus, Isildur held the Ring for less than two years (http://www.glyphweb.com/arda/r/ringofisildur.html). I expect that's just about how long we'll have to put up with Herr Twitler: it's already less than two years till the 2018 mid-terms.
