Trump Urges Governors to ‘Use the Military’ and Throw Demonstrators in Jail ‘For 10 Years’

President Trump ripped U.S. governors in a conference call Monday morning for failing to do enough to “dominate” the tens of thousands of people who have taken to the streets across the U.S. to protest the police killing of George Floyd. The president reportedly urged state leaders to crack down even more harshly on demonstrators with mass arrests and lengthy prison sentences.”You have to dominate if you don’t dominate you’re wasting your time,” Trump said, according to the audio of the call obtained by CBS News. “They’re going to run over you, you’re going to look like a bunch of jerks. You have to dominate.” Trump called on the state leaders to carry out more arrests, track demonstrators and hit protesters with a decade in prison. “You’ve got to arrest people, you have to track people, you have to put them in jail for 10 years and you’ll never see this stuff again,” Trump said.
