it's called a constitutional crisis. it wasn't envisioned that a president - let alone one completely off his rocker - would be able to select a majority of supreme court justices that would abet his every whim. the us constitution did not anticipate a congress so in thrawl to the president that they'd approve a cabinet full of nobody hacks exclusively loyal to him. when things break down in a country like this it's not uncommon that the military steps in and asserts itself to reestablish a regular constitutional order, it just hasn't happened in the us before. first time for everything. p.s. the fundamental issue is the concentration of power in the presidency which the us constitution specifically set out to prevent but which has been thwarted. the president isn't supposed to be able to just launch wars he's supposed to get the approval of congress but as with so much else congress has found that it's politically expedient to not take any responsibility for anything and delegate everything to the executive besides distribution of pork. p.p.s. my prediction to clarify if that the military would refuse a mad order, make this refusal public, and that this would prompt congressional action to either specifically withdrawl war powers from trump or to outright remove him. if they fail to do that then all bets would be off.
