Not too likely. Trump having a hate moment will be countered with the (hopefully) more grounded senses of his advisors. Some of them are... somewhat less level headed though.

I have serious doubts. It’s unlikely a war resolution would pass the house

Well, I can say from experiance that everyone in that missile attack drill video would have been dead.

Exposed necks get you killed.
Crouching in the middle of the room gets you killed
Not taking any cover gets you killed

I saw one with a baseball-cap facing forwards, not protecting the back of his neck at all and the cap sorta popped-off as his head went to the ground, providing no scalp-cover against flash-burns or cuts via flying debris.
