>Trump has had the National Guard on call waiting for call from any these states that request Federal assistance.
Good answer in the that post, IMO.
I would add that Trump has to avoid a Kent State. If he sends in the National Guard without a state Governor's approval and rioters and rioters are shot and killed it will be an MSM shark fest until election day.
If a governor calls in the guard and rioters are killed, they have partial blame as well, so Blue state governors and mayors are pushing the envelope as far as possible to goad Trump into a reaction without their approval. That's the reason for the swinging door policy when rioters are arrested, for example.
You have to speculate that if the Guard is called in, DS will have snipers tasked with shooting rioters, as was rumored to have happened in the Ukraine Maiden (I think) protests.
Trump has to play his cards close to his chest and reveal coordinated actions between Blue state pols and Antifa when the case is at an open and shut stage. Rumors now indicate good guys have cloned phones, for example. That could be the sign we're at the right stage.
