I don't think so.
The last time Trump was president, they had the national guard help to assist law enforcement with one of the George Floyd protests, and in the video I saw you can hear the crowd chanting "I'm black and I'm proud," and there was a black guardsman mouthing the words while they're chanting.
These people enlisted from communities all across America and come from all sorts of backgrounds who will most likely go back to their communities when their enlistment is up. We swore an oath to the constitution, not to a person.

If you're enlisted, you swore an oath to obey the orders of the President and those appointed over you - in addition to the Constitution.
If you're an officer, you did not swear an oath to obey the orders if the president.
And, if you think there isn't a sizeable number of people that would willingly follow any orders given by Trump ---- I've got some good bottom land in Florida to sell you. There might also be a bridge.
