Trump called Senator Jim Inhofe while Inhofe was at a DC restaurant. Inhofe put the call on speaker phone, allowing other diners to hear it. One of them went on to record the call.
In it, the two discuss ensuring that Robert E Lee's name remains on a military base, with Trump then bragging that he got 93k retweets (he got about a third of that) for a tweet in which he said he wouldn't remove the names of Confederates from US bases.
