The President doesn't appoint Congress. 
The Congress is supposed to be more powerful than the President.  They have deferred so much of their power to the president and his appointees over the last 100 years.  They may have to start taking it back.
It's not going to be pretty, and it will come across as disloyal to those of us who like the President at the time.
That said, this is just where I see things headed.  Congress has yet to pass major reforms to limit the President's power.  They are just talking about it.

It's expected that the Opposition Party, you know, oppose. It's unusual that the people who work for Trump directly and those who nominally belong to his party are actively trying to get him impeached for the sin of being elected.

And the Executive Branch is supposed to be as powerful as Congress through different means, check and balances and all that. I do agree that Congress has ceded to much to the other branches, but they shouldn't be more powerful than the others either.
