Highlights from Trump's call with governors, per audio obtained by @DavidWelchBN.

Trump urged governors repeatedly to "dominate" the protests.

"If you don't dominate, you're wasting your time. They're going to run over you, you're going to look like a bunch of jerks," he said.

"It's coming from the radical left, you know it, everybody knows it, but it's also looters," Trump said.

"They're anarchists, they are anarchists whether you like it or not."

"It's like a movement, and it's a movement that if you don't put it down, it'll get worse and worse. This is like Occupy Wall Street, it was a disaster, until one day, somebody said, that's enough, and they just went in and wiped them out," Trump said.

"You've got to arrest people, you have to try people, you have to put them in jail for 10 years and you'll never see this stuff again, and you have to let them know that," Trump said.

"The word is dominate. If you don't dominate your city and your state, they're going to walk away with you," Trump said.

Trump praised Minnesota for is response and for calling in the National Guard.

"Those guys walked through that stuff like it was butter," Trump said, later adding: "The big numbers knocked them out so fast it was like bowling pins."

The Defense Secretary twice referred to the protest/riot sites as the "battlespace."

"I think the sooner that you mass and dominate the battle-space, the quicker that this dissipates" Esper said on the call.

Barr encouraged governors to thin out the crowds so the Feds can prosecute.

"We want to lean forward and charge federally anyone who violates a federal law in connection with this rioting, but we need to have people in control of the streets," Barr said on the call.

Minnesota's Governor, praised by Trump, pushed back.

"Our city is grieving and in pain and I would just say that as far as the -- the peaceful protesters are expressing an outrage that is real. They witnessed eight minutes of a man dying in front of them," Walz said.

"That part of it then, of course, sparked the civil unrest where there were actors. And I would like to believe they're all out-of-state here in Minnesota, but they're not, they're home grown," Governor Walz said.

Maine's governor, Janet Mills, expressed concern about Trump coming to Maine this week.

"I'm very concerned that your presence may cause security problems for our state, we don't have them yet, so I'm concerned about that," she said. Trump said he'd look at that.

That led West Virginia's Jim Justice to tell Trump that he can always visit that state if others don't want him.

"That sounds a lot different than the Governor of Maine," Trump replied. "She tried to talk me out of it. Now I think she probably talked me into it."

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker: "I wanted to take this moment, and I can't let it pass, to speak up and say that I've been extraordinarily concerned of the rhetoric that's been used by you," he said.

"The rhetoric that's coming out of the White House is making it worse."

Trump's reply: "OK, well, thank you very much, JB. I don't like your rhetoric much either because I watched it with respect to the coronavirus, and I don't like your rhetoric much either and you could have done a much better job, frankly."

Trump then referred to an "Officer Floyd." (George Floyd died and a now-ex-officer is charged in the death.) Trump then later referred to a "Mr. Floyd."

Pres. Trump ended the call by asking governors to use the national guard.

"Too many [law enforcement officials] is a good thing. Too few is unacceptable. So go out there and get 'em, good luck tonight. And if you have any information, let us know please. Thank you very much."

Trump also said this: "General Milley is here, who's head of Joint Chiefs of Staff, a fighter, a warrior. A lot of victories, and no losses. And he hates to see the way it's being handled in the various states and I've just put him in charge."

Of what? @PressSec wouldn't say.
