Remember that the Constitution states that the President is commander in chief of the armed forces, as well as the organized militia, i.e., the National Guard. During the integration controversies in the 1950s and 1960s, Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy federalized the state National Guard units, taking them out of the hands of pro-segregation governors. Trump can do the same to blue state governors like Jerry Brown.
