My guess is that the CIA would do nothing and just go along. After all, Trump would be in charge and appointing its leaders.
I think Russia or another power might well insert itself into our civil war, if we had one, and any such civil war is certainly going to be "red vs. blue." A Trump presidency would be bound to incite one, and Trump himself might try to do so if and when he loses. He has threatened to do so, in fact, if he loses. It could be an opening salvo, like one of the similar events through the 1850s.
It doesn't matter if Trump is not entirely ideologically red; he is virtually so, and he now represents the parts of the red coalition most likely to revolt (the xenophobes, the tax haters, and the gun nuts).
