Doesn’t COMMANDER IN CHIEF President Trump’s orders take precedent over the Commander over Oregon National Guard?

Only if the Guard is federalized. Until then they are under control of the governor of their state.

The president orders. He doesn’t ask. The quote from Wikipedia is, “Presidential Reserve Call Up.
When the President determines that it is necessary to augment the active forces for any operational mission for any unit or any member for not more than 270 days.”
