The Heritage Foundation says that Trump has already accomplished 64% of his agenda, far more than Reagan in his first year.
What was special about Reagan was his political coattails. His being at the top of the ticket gave the GOP as 32 seat increase in the House (short of a majority, but a big increase) and a 12 seat increase in the Senate. Trump had negative coattails - the GOP lost 2 Senate and 6 House seats.
