Question:
Is there a way to stop "Presidential Alerts" from reaching my iPhone?

I turned off "Emergency Alerts" and "Amber Alerts" on my iPhone about a month ago.

I disconnected the SXM antenna so that my car stopped getting those damn alerts on my infotainment system.

My iPhone received two "Presidential Alerts" today.

Today was merely a test to ensure that the danger alert system works and it is unlikely you will receive others, or if so they will either simply be further tests or alerts to people of imminent dangers in their area.

you must be reminded of how annoying the president is.

you can mute your phone. otherwise, you can't turn it off. it's controlled by FEMA for natural disaster alerts, though the President does have his own option as well.
