Honestly? I doubt that. I wouldn't expect the military to kiss the ring any time soon. The drunk is bad enough but if you think the generals will follow Commander in Bone Spurs anywhere, well . . .

They know trump is weak, panicking and useless. All they have to do to keep their jobs and outlive his regime is nothing. Because just about every coup in the world that didn't have the military backing it has failed.
Besides, would you cooperate with the guy that's cut your funding, destroyed the policies that made you the most effective military on the planet, then called you to a meeting forcing you to travel halfway around the world just to ******* insult you?
If they kiss the ring, they're in violation of their oath and complicit. When trump is out (which won't be long one way or another: his regime collapses when he dies regardless.) the coconspirators will be probably be removed by whatever administration follows.

I have no faith that most of the generals give a damn about the Constitution. Like anybody else in power, all they care about is keeping that power. They're going to follow whoever's in charge as long as they keep their cushy jobs, and if that means getting cheeto dust on their lips I have no doubt they will do it.
I mean, aren't most of those in active military service, especially those that are in the upper ranks, Republicans?

They were just following protocol for political situations - I wouldn't read too much into it.
Trump is losing it at Faux Noise. FAUX NOISE IS PISSING HIM OFF!

Ironbite-oh that's not gonna go down easy.
Trump blasts 'politically correct' Fox News as he fumes over interview with Dem
Donald Trump had a meltdown on Truth Social on Sunday afternoon after Fox News aired an interview with a Democratic senator, who discussed healthcare — a hot-button issue amid the government shutdown
Ironbite-oh that's not gonna go down easy.
He's screamed at them before: he always comes crawling back, he needs his propaganda network and all the other right wing broadcasters are peanuts compared to fox.
This will go down like every other time this has happened. I remember when he decided to boycott FOX because he didn't like the questions Megyn Kelly asked him in the first 2015 debate. In 2024 she was on his campaign team.
And it goes both ways; wasn't she the one who got sacked by Fox News for not kissing his ass enough and went to work for one of the other news channels? So they kind of both came crawling back to each other. Which sums up his relationship with Fox News pretty well too.
He'll go back as soon as his need for attention overrides his ego. Or they'll go back as soon as they remember he brings in ratings. Either way, same result.
So a judge (that Trump himself appointed) barred Trump from sending Oregon national guard to Portland. So what does he do? He tries to send California National Guard instead. Fortunately, the same judge smacked that down as well.

Pritzger completely avoids the question of what he's going to do about the egregious acts of ICE. I'd hate for him to be a typical politician but it's certainly looking that way - lots of talk, no meaningful action.

Pritzker to hold update as Trump orders hundreds of Texas National Guard members to Illinois
Pritzker said Trump’s Department of War gave him what he called “an ultimatum” to either call up National Guard members or to have those members nationalized.

And a bunch of states also have a State Guard, making it even less clear what exactly the National Guard is.
