If the President rolls a catastrophic failure on Trade, can the Commander and Governors still act, and who orders them?
The designer confirmed this directly and it follows the rulebook's Vacant President rule.

Yes — the Presidency then counts as vacant, so the Chairman decides the order in which the Commander and Governors act, and they still all get their chance. The Chairman in that role cannot approve local alliance purchases or take Trade. If both Chairman and President are vacant, Commanders are not called to act.
